| Lyrics: | (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. |
