I was driving across the burning desert[00:00:26]
When I spotted six jet planes[00:00:32]
Leaving six white vapor trails across the bleak terrain[00:00:36]
It was the hexagram of the heavens[00:00:45]
The strings of my guitar[00:00:51]
Amelia it was just a false alarm[00:00:58]
The drone of flying engines[00:01:21]
Is a song so wild and blue[00:01:26]
It scrambles time and seasons if it gets thru to you[00:01:30]
Then your life becomes a travelogue[00:01:39]
Of picture post card charms[00:01:47]
Amelia it was just a false alarm[00:01:52]
People tell you where they've gone[00:02:16]
They'll tell you where to go[00:02:20]
But till you get there yourself you never really know[00:02:24]
Where some have found their paradise[00:02:33]
Other's just come to harm[00:02:40]
Oh Amelia it was just a false alarm[00:02:46]
I wish that he was here tonight[00:03:09]
It's so hard to obey[00:03:14]
His sad request of me to kindly stay away[00:03:17]
So this is how I hide the hurt[00:03:28]
As the road leads cursed and charmed[00:03:33]
I tell Amelia it was just a false alarm[00:03:38]
A ghost of aviation[00:04:02]
She was swallowed by the sky[00:04:07]
Or by the sea like me she had a dream to fly[00:04:10]
Like icarus ascending[00:04:21]
On beautiful foolish arms[00:04:26]
Amelia it was just a false alarm[00:04:33]
Maybe I've never really loved[00:04:58]
I guess that is the truth[00:05:03]
I've spent my whole life in clouds at icy altitude[00:05:05]
And looking down on everything[00:05:15]
I crashed into his arms[00:05:21]
Amelia it was just a false alarm[00:05:28]
I pulled into the cactus tree motel[00:05:52]
To shower off the dust[00:05:55]
And I slept on the strange pillows of my wanderlust[00:05:59]
I dreamed of 747s[00:06:08]
Over geometric farms[00:06:14]
Dreams Amelia dreams and false alarms[00:06:21]
