Icarus Songtext
von Katherine Priddy

Icarus Songtext

Do you remember that night where you set me alight?
Swore that the moon turned pale at the sight of us?
Melted away at the first light of day
Knew that I could never make you stay

And now, your eyes are on fire with unearthly desire
You′re never content, oh, you keep aiming higher
Leaving me breathless, I didn't expect this
You′re holding the match to your own funeral pyre

And darling, even ocean waves must bow down to the shore
Oh, everything has limits and you can't keep wanting more
Oh, no
I can't always always catch you if you fall

And Icarus, dear, you are flying too near
To the sun and it′s burning your skin
A faint distant cry, a black dot on the sky
As you realise the trouble you′re in
God, you're beautiful, a radiant stain as you fall down as rain


I′ve often wondered how things might have changed
If someone had told you, your plans were deranged
You were insane, all my hopes were in vain
There was only so long I could keep you caged

Well, I hope you are happy wherever you are
I hope you flew high and I hope you flew far
Pray and I hope that the landing is neat
Is it too much to ask you to fall on your feet?
I can't always catch you if you fall

And oh, what a magnificent way to die
And I still love you though I don′t know why

Icarus, dear, you are flying too near
To the sun and it's burning your skin
A faint distant cry, a black dot on the sky
As you realise the trouble you′re in
God, you're beautiful, a radiant stain as you fall

And you fall
Oh, you fall down as rain
Oh, I'll, I′ll catch you again
