14: Just A Man Lyrics

Sky is clear tonight
Sky is clear tomorrow
A star is out
I reach for one to sparkle in my hand
A star is out
I will not touch you, I am just a man
Sky is clear tonight
Sky is clear tomorrow
- And every night I shut my eyes
  So I don't have to see the light
  Shining so bright
  I'll dream about a cloudy sky, a cloudy sky
  "Man was born to love -
  Though often he has sought
  Like Icarus, to fly too high.
  And far too lonely than he ought
  To kiss the sum of east and west
  And hold the world at his behest -
  To hold the terrible power
  To whom only gods are blessed -
  But me, I am just a man"
- And every night I shut my eyes
  So I don't have to see the light
  Shining so bright
  I'll dream about a cloudy sky, a cloudy sky
  And every night I shut my eyes
  But now I've got them open wide
  You've fallen into my hands
  And now you're burning me
  You're burning me
