Mike Oldfield - Five Miles Out

Dicen que en un aciago viaje en avión, Mike Oldfield tuvo una experiencia cercana a la muerte, y que de resultas de aquello escribió esta brillante obra maestra del pop de los 80.



What Do You Do When Your Falling,
You've Got 30 Degrees And You're Stalling Out?
And It's 24 Miles To Your Beacon;
There's A Crack In The Sky And The Warning's 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.
You're Number 1, Anticipating You.

Climbing Out.
Just Hold Your Heading True.
Got To Get Your Finest Out.
You're Number 1, 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 You Lost In The Violent Storm!
Communicate Or Squawk '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 Braking.

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)
