Plainsong - Amelia Earhart's Last Flight lyrics

Just a ship out on the ocean, a speck against the sky, Amelia earhart flying that sad day; With her partner, captain noonan, on the second of july Her plane fell in the ocean, far away. Theres a beautiful, beautiful field Far away-ay-ay in a land that is fair. Happy landings to you, amelia earhart, Farewell, first lady of the air. Half an hour later her sos was heard, Her signals weak, but still her voice was brave. In shark-infested waters her aeroplane went down that night In the blue pacific to a watery grave. Theres a beautiful, beautiful field Far away-ay-ay in a land that is fair. Happy landings to you, amelia earhart, Farewell, first lady of the air. Now you heard my story bout this awful tragedy, We all pray shell fly home safe again. In years to come, though others blaze a trail across the sea, Well neer forget amelia and her plane. Theres a beautiful, beautiful field Far away-ay-ay in a land that is fair. Happy landings to you, amelia earhart, Farewell, first lady of the air. Farewell, first lady of the air
