Alan Parsons Project - Too Close To The Sun - Текст песни

(Parsons, Bairnson, Elliott)

There must be a thousand ways 
Holding us within this maze 
Every path we take leads us astray 
Comfort me my only son 
Till the day my work is done 
There's no earthly reason we should stay

And when the wind gets under these wings 
You will feel what freedom brings 
Stay right by me, walk don't run 
I don't want you flying too close to the sun

Turn your eyes towards the light 
Steal away in silent flight 
The skies are calling out to you and me 
Over sea and over land 
God protect us with your hand 
Bring us safely to our destiny

And now the wind is under our wings 
We can taste what freedom brings 
Stay right by me, walk don't run 
I don't want you flying too close to the sun

God forgive his fall from grace 
The sea conceals his resting place 
Can we learn to stay behind the line 
If we have the means to fly 
Some of us will surely die 
Being reckless was his only crime

And now the wind is under our wings 
We can taste what freedom brings 
Stay right by me, walk don't run 
I don't want you flying too close to the sun
