Mike Oldfield: Five Miles Out

falling, falling
What do you do when your falling
you've got 30 degrees and your stalling out
And its 24 miles to the beacon
there's a crack in the sky and the warnings out

Don't take that dive again
Push through that band of rain
 
Five miles out
Just hold your heading true 
Got to get your finest out
Your number one anticipating you
 
Climbing out 
Just hold your heading true 
Got to get your finest out 
Your number one anticipating you
 
Mayday, Mayday, Mayday 
Calling all stations 
This is Golf Mike Oscar Victor Juliet 
IMC CU.NIMB.ICING 
In great difficulty 
Over 
 
The traffic controller is calling 
Victor Juliet your identity 
I have lost in the violet storm 
Communicate or squalk emergency 
 
Don't take that dive again 
Push through that band of rain 
 
Lost in Static 18
And the storm is closing in now 
Automatic 18 - Got to push through - Trapped in living hell
 
Your a prisoner of the dark sky

The propeller blades are still 
And the evil eye of the hurricane's 
Coming in now for the kill 
 
Our hope's with you - Rider in the blue 
 
Welcome's waiting, We're anticipating 
You'll be celebrating, when you're down, and breaking 
 
Climbing out - climbing climbing 
Five miles out - climbing climbing 
 
Five miles out 
Just hold your heading true 
Got to get your finest out 
Climbing Climbing 
 
Five miles out 
Just hold your heading true 
Got to get your finest out 
Climbing Climbing 
 
Climbing out 
Just hold your heading true 
Got to get your finest out 
Climbing Climbing 
 
Five miles out 
Just hold your heading true 
Got to get your finest out 
Climbing Climbing 
 
Climbing out 
Just hold your heading true 
Got to get your finest out
