Charlie`s Sky Songtext

CHARLIE'S SKY (I. Davies)-------------------------Charlie was just a boyLaid back in an open field andFollowed those distant wingsAround in lazy circles"When are they gonna come down?" he said,"Or are they watching overMe here on the ground instead?""Or maybe they just fly forever?"You dont forget about heroesYou simply shake their handsThen you watch them fly awayOne night there's a new starUp in Charlie's skyFirst raid on the jungle nightFlying low in the radio silenceOne eye on the gunners sightOne eye on the waiting targetIt's not a matter of wrong or rightYou asked no questions, 'cause you found no answersGod knows when you have to fightYou say a prayer and you take your chancesYou don't forget about heroesYou simply shake their handsThen you watch them wave goodbyeOne night there's a new starUp in Charlie's skyYou don't forget about heroesLike any big wild birdYou have to let them fly away[Pray that] no one can reach themUp in Charlie's skySomewhere deep in the mountainsSomewhere wide of the landing lightsmissing in actionBut I know he made it homeHome alright[chorus2][chorus3][chorus2][chorus3]
