Lyrics
Title: FLYING ON EMPTY (Looking for a safe place to land)
Words & Music by Rob & Alan Fennah
VERSE 1
I feel like an Ace
After the fight
Flying On Empty
Lost In the night
Tryin to keep some space
Between the water and me
It ain't easy
VERSE 2
So follow your dream
Have a good life
Go and make someone
A beautiful Wife
Baby it breaks my heart
Lord I wish it were me
Can't you see
That I could never hope to take
your hand
While I'm flying on empty
Looking for a safe place to land
CHORUS 1
I see no coast on my horizon
Just heavy rain clouds closing in
Below are seas and stormy oceans
That's why I can't have you around
No I don't want to drag you down
VERSE 3
I'm all out of luck
All out of faith
Won't somebody out there
Give me a break
Love and a steady job
Is all I really need
To set me free
Cos I ain't got time for making plans
While I'm flying on empty
Looking for a safe place to land
No I aint got time for making plans
While I'm flying on empty
Looking for a safe place to land
CHORUS 2
So if at night while you're out walking
You see a trail blaze across the sky
Ring out the bell and light up the beacon
I got an engine on fire
Wheels down, but only one tyre
Repeat VER1 & 2
While I'm flying on empty
Looking for a safe place to land
While I'm flying on empty
Looking for a safe place to land
