Too Close To The Sun Lyrics - On Air - Alan Parsons

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 when the wind gets under these 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 when the wind gets under these 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 

Too close to the sun, too close to the sun, too close
