Flight Of Icarus - Live; 1998 Remastered Version

Yeah, yeah

As the sun breaks above the ground an old man stands on the hill
As the ground warms to the first rays of light, a birdsong shatters the still
His eyes are ablaze
See the madman in his gaze

Fly on your way like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly, touch the sun, yeah

Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears, looks the old man in the eye
Spreads his wings and shouts at the crowd, "In the name of God my father, I fly!"
His eyes seem so glazed
As he flies on the wings of a dream
Now he knows his father betrayed
Now his wings turn to ashes to ashes his grave

Fly on your way like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly, touch the sun

Yeah
Fly on your way like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly, touch the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly

Fly as high as the sun
Yeah!
