A Letter Home by The Extraordinaires Lyrics

Dearest father I, daughter of the sky, I beg for your advice
I'm being held a prisoner by the one and only love of my life
Can't you see that I am helpless to decide

Dearest father I, the victim of surprise, I fell into his eyes
Once I free my plane, I'll be free to fly away and out of sight
But life without my love would be to die

Dearest father I, simply must deny, a battle brews tonight
As a captive I must fight, but to fight would mean that one would not survive
But life without my love would be to die

Dearest father I, simply must deny, a battle brews tonight
As a captive I must fight, but to fight would mean that one would not survive
But if I must I'll tie these ribbons extra tight

Dear Sophila, please deliver this urgent plea
Bear the scroll I'm tying at your feet
Take this note and head for sunrise until you're home
Bricks and mortar covered in the snow
Take this note and fly away - don't hesitate tonight
Make one sound and you'll be found and shot down in mid-flight

One last kiss we both share, ribbons of war in my hair
One last goodbye we both share, ribbons of war in my hair
Father, I love you, but this is goodbye - without each other we cannot survive

Goodbye
