[00:13.10]I was driving across the burning desert
[00:17.60]when i spotted six jet planes
[00:21.92]leaving six white vapor trails across the bleak terrain
[00:31.57]it was the hexagram of the heavens
[00:37.26]like the strings of my guitar
[00:43.35]amelia, it was just a false alarm
[00:57.61]
[01:05.02]The drone of flying engines
[01:09.45]is a song so wild and blue
[01:13.56]it scrambles time and seasons if it gets thru to you
[01:23.34]then your life becomes a travelogue
[01:29.13]of picture-post-card-charms
[01:34.41]amelia, it was just a false alarm
[01:45.11]
[01:57.74]People will tell you where they've gone
[02:02.59]they'll tell you where to go
[02:05.64]but till you get there yourself you never really know
[02:14.93]where some have found their paradise
[02:20.98]other's just come to harm
[02:26.84]oh amelia, it was just a false alarm
[02:39.52]
[02:49.57]I wish that he was here tonight
[02:54.51]it's so hard to obey
[02:57.61]his sad request of me to kindly stay away
[03:07.06]so this is how i hide the hurt
[03:12.54]as the road leads cursed and charmed
[03:17.97]i tell amelia, it was just a false alarm
[03:27.77]
[03:41.28]The ghost of aviation
[03:45.88]she was swallowed by the sky
[03:49.20]or by the sea, like me she had a dream to fly
[03:59.55]like icarus ascending
[04:03.47]on beautiful foolish arms
[04:11.78]amelia, it was just a false alarm
[04:19.03]
[04:33.40]Maybe i've never really loved
[04:38.22]i guess that is the truth
[04:41.15]i've spent my whole life in clouds at icy altitude
[04:50.75]and looking down on everything
[04:56.52]i crashed into his arms
[05:02.63]amelia, it was just a false alarm
[05:11.23]
[05:25.02]I pulled into the cactus tree motel
[05:29.97]to shower off the dust
[05:32.97]and i slept on the strange pillows of my wanderlust
[05:42.11]i dreamed of 747s
[05:46.95]over geometric farms
[05:53.87]dreams, amelia, dreams and false alarms
[06:01.06]
