Στίχοι

I never wanted to fly high
I was fond of walking
So when you said you'd reach the sky
Thought it was a way of talking
But you told me you'd build some wings
You'd thought out how it could be done
And I was doubtful of everything
Never thought you'd reach the sun
You were so clever with your hands
I watched you for hours
With your glue and rubber bands
Feathers and lace and flowers
And the finished wings gleamed so bright
Like some bird of glory
Began to envy you your flight
Like some hero's story
You asked me to go along with you
Tried all ways to dare me
But I looked at the sky so blue
Said the height would scare me
But I carried the wings for you
Up the path to the cliff face
Kissed you goodbye and watched your eyes
Already bright with sunlight
It was so wonderful at the start
To watch you soaring higher
Was a pain deep in my heart
The wings seemed tipped with fire
Like some seagull or some lark
Rising up to heaven
Like some ember or some spark
Vanishing from earth forever
And I believed you'd reach the sun
I believed all you told me
You'd do a thing no man had ever done
And catch a star to please me
But then I saw the white wings fold
Saw the feathers crumble
And watched you fall like a ball of gold
The waves and waters rippled
And there are some who are born to rise
Some are born to follow
Some who head straight for the skies
Some walk in the hollow
But as I watched your body fall
I knew that really you had won
For your grave was not the earth
But the reflection of the sun
