Kill Devil Hill
|
|
|
Blood brothers of angels now hear us,
|
We earthbound your offspring, don't fear us
|
God willing, we'll rise up, be near you
|
So open your arms now, and take us
|
So we're breathing our dreams, like the Icarus of old
|
The plans we made for the bold
|
And the blue-eyed beyond, there's nowhere to hide
|
There's no going back now
|
|
[chorus:]
|
As the wind whips over the hillside
|
20 knots over Kill Devil Hill
|
Steady wind blows over the sand
|
20 knots over Kill Devil Hill
|
As the breeze whips straight as an arrow
|
It begun over Kill Devil Hill
|
Gasoline and the wind in the wires
|
Kill Devil Hill and the way to the stars
|
|
We stand on this seashore and wonder
|
What madness, what secrets we plunder
|
All failure we learn from, discovery
|
The wreckage of heaven lies on the sand
|
First chance is abandoned
|
With wood string and wire we can barely control our desire
|
For destiny's arrows...
|
|
[chorus:]
|
As the wind whips over the hillside
|
20 knots over Kill Devil Hill
|
Steady wind blows over the sand
|
20 knots over Kill Devil Hill
|
As the breeze whips straight as an arrow
|
It begun over Kill Devil Hill
|
Gasoline and the wind in the wires
|
Kill Devil Hill and the way to the stars
|
|
[instrumental part]
|
|
(Where are those secrets, holding our dreams?)
|
|
(Where are those secrets, holding our dreams?)
|
|
(Where are those secrets, holding our dreams?)
|
|
(Where are those secrets, holding our dreams?)
