icarus with gigi perez

Mumford & Sons

See through the smoke
Just a card in play
That she wrote my name on
Breathing in the cold
How could she throw me away?
At least wait til I have wings on

You know, I kissed her once
And she smiled
She ll never see the boy falling out of the sky

It took me all I had
To turn away from this one
Thought I d take my chances
I was blinded, I was young
But then all at once
I was back to where I begun
I was burned by the morning
I got too close to the sun

She said, Your feathers fit just right
You re a fool, you re a climber
You should ve called it a night
Well, it turns out (It turns out)
I turned out fine (Turned out fine)
So better luck next time
I m Icarus ascending

You know, I kissed her once
And she smiled
She ll never see the boy falling out of the sky

It took me all I had
To turn away from this one
Thought I d take my chances
I was blinded, I was young
But then all at once
I was back to where I begun
I was burned by the morning
I got too close to the sun

She ll never know
I was falling, falling, ah
I got too close to the sun

It took me all I had
To turn away from this one
Thought I d take my chances
I was blinded, I was in love
But then all at once
I was back to where I begun
I was burned by the morning
I got too close to the sun
I got too close to the sun
