Icarus (Live)
In the wee hours
There's liquid wax beneath
The only source of light in the room
And our own wings are melting in the heat
You and I are plummeting into the blue
Should I have known
Did I get too close
Led by desire and unseeing eyes
I flew much too high
And held you
Only to lose you
Ooh, ooh
You and I go plummeting into the blue
Ooh, ooh
I flew much too high
Only to lose you
In the morning
Tapping thumbs find peace
This relief my heart's refreshing dew
Where the old tale of empty tomb and tree
Finds its way into the tale of me and you
Should I have known
How the story goes
Shaken by the oscillating tides
The lows and the highs
Where I lost you
Only to find you again
Ooh, ooh
You and I go plummeting into the blue
Ooh, ooh
I flew much too high
Too high
Ooh, ooh
You and I go plummeting into the blue
Ooh, ooh
I flew much too high
God only knows what we do
In the reeling
The bruises on my knees
Reveal the fear of the I've been here before
I raise a whisper
To my prince of peace
On behalf of these sacred binding cords
Give me wisdom, O Lord
Protect and Restore
There's liquid wax beneath
The only source of light in the room
And our own wings are melting in the heat
You and I are plummeting into the blue
Should I have known
Did I get too close
Led by desire and unseeing eyes
I flew much too high
And held you
Only to lose you
Ooh, ooh
You and I go plummeting into the blue
Ooh, ooh
I flew much too high
Only to lose you
In the morning
Tapping thumbs find peace
This relief my heart's refreshing dew
Where the old tale of empty tomb and tree
Finds its way into the tale of me and you
Should I have known
How the story goes
Shaken by the oscillating tides
The lows and the highs
Where I lost you
Only to find you again
Ooh, ooh
You and I go plummeting into the blue
Ooh, ooh
I flew much too high
Too high
Ooh, ooh
You and I go plummeting into the blue
Ooh, ooh
I flew much too high
God only knows what we do
In the reeling
The bruises on my knees
Reveal the fear of the I've been here before
I raise a whisper
To my prince of peace
On behalf of these sacred binding cords
Give me wisdom, O Lord
Protect and Restore
