lyrics

I saw you climb a ladder of lace
At the top you turned and changed
Into a kite which I held on
So hard it was as I am not that strong

My fingers hurt for gripping the reel
So far below the bucolic fields
A tug of war with a nylon chord
Exalted in the sky you just soared

Do you fly too near the sun?
Are you Icarus's son?

My hands held on as I tried to fight
But you were transfixed by a sudden light
You circled round, dived up and down
A star shot in the chandelier

Dangers that throw caution to the wind
Are ones you have lived through time and again
You are a kite who tempers the breeze
Someone who fights for all that he believes

Do you fly too near the sun?
Are you Icarus's son?
