(Carly Simon)
|
If you want to be brave
|
And reach for the top of the sky
|
And the farthest point on the horizon
|
Do you know who you'll meet there
|
Great soldiers and seafarers,
|
Artists and dreamers
|
Who need to be close, close to the light
|
They need to be in danger of burning by fire
|
And I, I want to get there
|
I, I want to be one
|
One who is touched by the sun,
|
One who is touched by the sun
|
|
Often I want to walk
|
The safe side of the street
|
And lull myself to sleep
|
And dull my pain
|
But deep down inside I know
|
I've got to learn from the greats,
|
Earn my right to be living,
|
Let my wings of desire
|
Soar over the night
|
I need to let them say
|
"She must have been mad"
|
And I, I want to get there
|
I, I want to be one
|
One who is touched by the sun,
|
One who is touched by the sun
|
|
I've got to learn from the greats,
|
Earn my right to be living,
|
With every breath that I take,
|
Every heartbeat
|
And I, I want to get there
|
I, I want to be one, One who is touched by the sun,
|
One who is touched by the sun.
