Once I flew close to the sun
But it's heat did not burn me
For I flew brilliantly
And though my wings were mad of wax
My courage and pure heart, ensured they would last
Alas my wings meet your passion, and was no match
And your love and passion melted my wings of wax
Soon I began my descent to the ground
With nothing but love, and sweet thoughts of you
