lirik lagu robin laing - icarus
[verse 1]
i never wanted to fly high, i was fond of walking
when you said you’d reach the sky, i thought it was a way of talking
but you told you’d build some wings
you’d thought out how it could be done
i was doubtful of everything, never thought you’d reach the sun
[verse 2]
you were so clever with your hands
i watched you for hours
with your glue and rubber bands, feather and lace, and flowers
and the finished wings gleamed so bright, like some bird of glory
began to envy you, your flight
like some hero story
[verse 3]
you asked me to go along with you
tried always to dare me
i lookеd up the sky, so blue
said the hеight could scare me, but i’d carry the wings for you
up the path to the cliff~face
kissed you goodbye and watched your eyes, already bright with sunlight
[verse 4]
it was so wonderful at the start, to see you soaring higher
with a pain deep in my heart
the wings took fire like some eagle or some lark heading for the heavens
like some ember or some spark, vanishing from earth forever
[verse 5]
and i believed you’d reach the sun
i believed all you told me
you’d do the thing no man had done and catch a star to please me
and i saw the white wings fall, i saw the feathers tremble
i saw you fall like a ball of gold
waves in the water ripple
[verse 6]
there are some who were born to rise
and some are born to follow
some who head straight for the skies
and some walk in the hollow
and as i watched your body fall, i knew that really you had won
for your grave was not the earth
but the reflection of the sun
