Good Bye Blue Sky

Timeless Floyd!

Good Bye Blue Sky by Pink Floyd

[Childs voice:]
Look Mummy…There’s an airplane up in the sky…..

Did you see the frightened ones
Did you hear the falling bombs
Did you ever wonder
Why we had to run for shelter
When the promise of a brave new world
Unfurled beneath a clear blue sky

Did you see the frightened ones
Did you hear the falling bombs
The flames are all long gone
But the pain lingers on
Goodbye blue sky
Goodbye blue sky
Goodbye
Goodbye
