Icarus

Take these wings and fly with me - but follow my advice
Don't you fly too close to the sun - the heat will end your life
And seawater ruins your feathers - so keep your wings dry
Just keep close and follow my path - Icarus, my son

Fly – but don't get too high
Fly – this is your only try
Fly – but don't touch the sky
Fly – or you will die

You feel the airstream in your face - your heart is beating fast
A feeling that you've never felt - excited by every flap
Against the warning of your father - you try to touch the sky
Melting wax runs down your arms - Icarus, you fool

Fly – but don't get too high
Fly – this is your only try
Fly – but don't touch the sky
Fly – or you will die

Why – did you get too high?
Why – waste your only try?
Why – tried to touch the sky?
Why – why did you die?
