Icarus By Night

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I only go up at night When the moon is full And the evening breezes blow I go only high enough To see the ground below [Verse 2] I only go up at night That's when no one else can see me Being foolish And wishing for one more chance To do it all again [Chorus] I was so much younger then And blinded by the beauty of the sun It looked so lovely I just had to touch it once Then tumbling down into the sea Now I know Now I know [Verse 3] He taught me how to fly And like any son I wanted to make good my first impression Words from the wise Are wasted on the foolish and the young [Verse 4] Now I only go up at night The illusion is complete No one knows of my survival The twilight hours Are mine, and mine alone [Chorus] I was so much younger then And blinded by the beauty of the sun It looked so lovely I just had to touch it once Then tumbling down into the sea Now I know Now I know [Chorus] I was so much younger then And blinded by the beauty of the sun It looked so lovely I just had to touch it once Then tumbling down into the sea Now I know
