[Verse]
I walked to the edge
And took a deep breath
I slowly closed my eyes
Said a prayer then I lept
[Verse]
I felt myself falling
Going head over heels
When I hit the bottom
I’ll know how darkness feels
[Verse]
It seems like forever
As I make my way down
I’m ready for the end
But I never reach the ground
[Chorus]
Like Icarus I’m flying
Yes I have spread my wings
I feel the warmth of the sun
And the peacefulness it brings
Like Icarus I’m soaring
High above the ground
I’ll stay up here forever
In this freedom I have found
The fates were so generous
As I fly away like Icarus
[Verse]
All my problems leave me
As I soar with the wind
I thought that I was dead
But I feel alive again
[Verse]
Now I can’t help but smile
As I think about the past
I had so many burdens
But now I’m free at last
[Chorus]
Like Icarus I’m flying
Yes I have spread my wings
I feel the warmth of the sun
And the peacefulness it brings
Like Icarus I’m soaring
High above the ground
I’ll stay up here forever
In this freedom I have found
The fates were so generous
As I fly away like Icarus
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Everything is so tranquil
Up high above it all
And I wouldn’t be here
If I hadn’t chose to fall
[Final Chorus]
Like Icarus I’m flying
Yes I have spread my wings
I feel the warmth of the sun
And the peacefulness it brings
Like Icarus I’m soaring
High above the ground
I’ll stay up here forever
In this freedom I have found
The fates were so generous
As I fly away like Icarus
