Caught by the wind, lost in a spin
It's hard to see when a hurricane sets in
Boats retreating to the shore
The chill of night as evening falls
The sun illuminates the dust along the beach
Then falls right out of reach

Teach me to run and I will be gone
With thrown caution
Like Icarus to the sun
The open sea before my eyes
Melts into the distant sky
Keeps me restless, keeps the spark inside my world
Like the man who dives for the pearl

Thrown by the thought
Of what would really happen if I bought
A ticket to another land
Then found that it was built on sand
Would my world come crashing to the floor
Would Columbus have said
"I'll sit and watch the sun go down instead
Deal again my man, I'll wait till I've a winning hand
And if the wind is right then off we'll run"
Like Icarus into the sun
Like Icarus into the sun
