lyrics

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?
