Touched by the Sun Lyrics

If you want to be brave
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
One who is touched by the sun

Often I want to walk
The safe side of the street
And lull myself to sleep
End all my pain

Oh, 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
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
One who is touched by the sun
One who is touched by the sun
One who is touched by the sun
One who is touched by the sun
