Woke up before the sunrise to the hum of jet engines
Coffee in my cup, fingers slippin' on the buttons
MD-11's ready, she's a mighty big bird
Virtual skies open wide, let the journey be heard
Climbin' altitude, the headset's on tight
Chatter on VATSIM and controllers in sight
Copilot's a ghost, but the systems don't lie
Turbulence, kissin' wings soar through the sky
Oh, San Diego's lights callin' me down
Approach vectors tightenin', no turnin' around
Throttles wailin', birds sailin', heartbeats pound
Slammin' wheels on the runway, Lindbherg's holy ground
Descends through the layers below the blue gleam
Air's poppin', wind knockin', feels like a dream
Virtual towers givin' final command
Flaps deploy, grace destroyed, I got shaky hands
San Diego's skyline's callin' so near
Wing wobblin', heartthrobbin', conquer this fear
Gears deploy, sweats pour, here comes the ground
MD-11 screamin', thunderous sound
Oh, San Diego's lights callin' me down
Approach vectors tightenin', no turnin' around
Throttles wailin', birds sailin', heartbeats pound
Slammin' wheels on the runway, Lindbherg's holy ground
Oh, San Diego's lights callin' me down
Approach vectors tightenin', no turnin' around
Throttles wailin', birds sailin', heartbeats pound
Slammin' wheels on the runway, Lindbherg's holy ground
Lindbherg's, holy ground
