Gary Moore - Murder In The Skies lyrics

Time was running out for all on board

Soaring up through the shadows of night

High above the clouds the engines roared

This would be their final flight

The Russians have shot down a plane on its way to Korea

Two hundred and sixtynine innocent victims have died

Murder in the skies

Came without a warning

Murder in the skies

Black September morning

Murder in the skies

Time was running out for everyone

Flying over the Sea of Japan

None would live to see the rising sun

Death was following close at hand

The Russians have shot down a plane on its way to Korea

Two hundred and sixtynine innocent victims have died

Murder in the skies

Came without a warning

Murder in the skies

Black September morning

Murder in the skies

Came without a warning

Murder in the skies

Black September morning

Murder in the skies

Came without a warning

Murder in the skies

Black September morning

Murder in the skies

Came without a warning

Murder in the skies

Black September morning

Murder in the skies

Murder in the skies

Murder in the skies

Murder, murder in the skies

Murder in the skies
