In which song where these lines spoken :-


The plane was way overdue so I went inside to the airlines desk and I said "Sir, I
Wonder why 1203 is so late?" He said "Aww, they probably took off late or they
May have run into some turbulent weather and had to alter their course."

 

1960's

No clue, Wolf.  It wasn't something to do with the Big Bopper and Richie Valens and Buddy Holly, was it?

I love these lyrics and want to share them with you all. I won't ask you to guess what song because it's a very obscure band called Kiss of the Gypsy.

Let's fly away now on the wings of wonder, touch me again.

The cold breath of winter, hold me in your arms, shield me again.

Like the shadow of night I'll haunt you, behind you wherever you may go

Like the kiss on the wind I'll find you, no matter how far you wish to go...

You can ride on my shoulders, through the skies like an eagle I'll carry you,

Like a rock I will stand and support you, I'll be the earth beneath your feet,

I will be here to hold on to, if you grow tired hold on to me.
