Too Close Too the Sun

(By Alan Parsons, Ian Bairnson and Stuart Elliott) (Lead vocal - Neil Lockwood) 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!
