I'm looking for who sings the song with lyrics about a pilot trying to pull a plane out of a nose dive.?

Question

I heard this song quite a few years ago (within the last decade... probably 3 or 5 years ago), it was a country song (I think) and all I remember is that it is about people on a plane and one of them (I think it was the pilot but my mom says it was a passenger) is calling his wife to say "good-bye" and I THINK the last line of the song is,
"As the pilot tried to pull the plane out of a nose dive"
I've been looking for this song FOR YEARS and am actually starting to doubt its existance.

Answer 1

Don't doubt it's existence... The song is "One Last Time" by Dusty Drake.

Here are the lyrics:

When she picked up the telephone,
His voice came on the line.
She said: "This can't be happening,"
An' tears fell from her eyes.
She said: "What am I supposed to do?
"I can't handle losin' you."
He said: "I just had to call to say goodbye,
"One last time."

He said: "There are some things in this life,
"That are out of our control.
"Like who we fall in love with,
And when it's time to go."
An' she said: "What about the plans we had?"
He said: "This connection's gettin' bad."
"Now c'mon baby, let me hear you smile,
One last time."

She started to apologise,
For all the things that she'd done wrong.
She said: "I would have loved you better.
If only I'd known."
He said: "You were the perfect wife:
Promise me you'll go on with your life."
She said: "The boys won't understand."
He said: "Tell 'em Daddy loves 'em and, be strong, whoa."

He said: "Honey, I've gotta go."
She said: "Don't you dare hang up.
There's so many things I need to say.
I love you so much."
It was almost like she felt him leave.
She cried out: "Can you still hear me?"
She fell down on the kitchen floor,
When the signal died,
As the pilot tried to pull out of the dive.
One last..

The name of the song is called "One Last Time" and Dusty Drake sings it. It was released shortly after the 9/11 tragedies.

Great song, makes me cry everytime.
