Lyrics

1. FLIGHT OF ICARUS

As the sun breaks, above the ground
An old man stands on the hill
As the ground warms, to the first rays of light
A birdsong shatters the still

His eyes are ablaze
See the madman in his gaze

[Chorus]
Fly, on your way, like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly and touch the sun

Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears
Looks the old man in the eye
As he spreads his wings and shouts at the crowd
In the name of god my father i fly

His eyes seems so glazed
As he flies on the wings of a dream
Now he knows his father betrayed
Now his wings turn to ashes to ashes his grave

[Chorus]

Fly, on your way, like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun

On your way, like an eagle
Fly and touch the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly... fly as high as the sun !


2. I'VE GOT THE FIRE (MONTROSE COVER)

If you're looking for someone that you can keep then, baby, pass me by
And if you wanted something that's twenty years deep, baby, don't even try
And if you wanted someone to take your soul i'll lift you up little bit higher

I've got the fire

So you think i'm skinny, don't you sell me cheap, i'm as wide as a country-mile
Some like it wide, i like it deep, guess which one is my style
So you think you can beat me by my own game, maybe i call you a liar

I've got the fire
I've got the fire... !
I've got it !
