Lyrics
day the music died. the plane took off in a Midwest midnight snow a shortcut to the next stop on the tour bad weather and/or pilot error, we’ll never know all we know is the metaphor the day the music died….. the day the music died….. and that was almost half a century ago but there’s still an empty space ‘that’ll be the day’, that they had to go I hope they’re in a better place the day the music died the day the music died (c) 2007 m. skliar
