Lyrics
Icarus
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Man all the lifeboats, the ship's going down
Despite all your promises no one will drown
Water was rising you took for the shore
I stay behind and start pulling the oars
Like Icarus foolishly going to high
Or thinking that someday you might be my wife
Watching the wax dripping down towards the sea
Or wondering if you ever still think of me
If I never find you I want you to know it was love
If anything happens I want you to know it was love
It was love
It was love
I'm not unhappy I'm doing just fine
But sometimes at night you still come to my mind
Remember that night when I came to your door?
I don't think I could love anyone more
If I never find you I want you to know it was love
If anything happens I want you to know it was love
Maybe it's over I hope you remember this love
Should anything happen I want you to know it was love
It was love
It was love
It was love
