Did he fail when he fell, that Icarus we know so well? I think credit's owed where credit's due. We all forget: he also flew When love comes to an end, how people love to weigh in They tally all the faults and total scores, but they don't know our love meant more Loving you was an early morning, watching the sunrise turn to day Holding the covers up 'til the moment they all were pulled away Like catching the last rays of a sunset on a cool summer's night Knowing the stars can't always shine so bright - shine so bright Did he fail when he fell, that Icarus we know so well? I think credit's owed where credit's due. We all forget: he also flew Loving you 'til the early morning, watching the sunrise turn to day Holding you closer up 'til the moment you turned and pulled away Loving you was learning to fly on wings of feathers and of wax Soaring sky-high with nothing else worth looking back to Did we fail when we fell from a love we knew so well? I think credit's owed where credit's due Please don't forget: we also flew Would you think back on our time gladly? Anything worth doing at all's worth doing badly
