"Icarus" lyrics

"Icarus"

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

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 my love
Should anything happen I want you to know it was love
It was love
