Delta Wing

Just like a marvel of history We were ahead of our time An installation at Ripley's How we ended a mystery An unexpected decline As we strapped in for take off Our love was ready to take flight 'Cause nobody could stop us The air traffic controllers flew-by-night We were approaching speeds of Mach 2 Sonic boom, slicing the sky Smashing all of the windows of the homes we passed by If you asked me forever, well we gave it a try But we're on our way down The economics were misty Perhaps the cost was too high Gave too much to industry Treated you unfairly Priorities mis-aligned Once we fired up the thrusters We left all our problems behind Nobody could've stopped us We were faster than anyone could find We were approaching speeds of Mach 2 Sonic boom, slicing the sky Smashing all of the windows of the homes we passed by If you asked me forever, well we gave it a try But we're on our way down We were approaching speeds of Mach 2 Sonic boom, slicing the sky Smashing all of the windows of the homes we passed by To tell you that I'm sorry I made you cry But there's no turning back now There's no turning back now Was always glad to count on you as co-captain We had some great times up in the sky But the time has come for us to say bye Was always glad to count on you as co-captain We had some great times up in the sky But the time has come for us to say bye Was always glad to count on you as co-captain We had some great times up in the sky But the time has come for us to say bye Was always glad to count on you as co-captain We had some great times up in the sky But the time has come for us to say bye Hey-hey-hey hey-yeah Hey-hey-hey hey-yeah Hey-hey-hey hey-yeah Hey-hey-hey hey-yeah
