Icarus
Mumford & Sons Song Lyrics

Artist: Mumford & Sons
Album: Prizefighter (2026)

See through the smoke
Just a card in play
That you wrote my name on
Breathing in the cold
How could she throw me away?
At least wait till I have wings on.

You know I kissed her once
And she smiled
She'll never see
The boy falling out of the sky.

It took me all I had
To turn away from this one
Thought I'd take my chances
I was blinded, I was young
But then all at once
I was back to where I begun
I was burned by morning
I got too close to the sun.

She said
'Your feathers fit just right
You're a fool, you're a climber
You should've called it a night'
Well, it turns out (it turns out)
I turned out fine (turned out fine)
So better luck next time
I'm icarus ascending.

You know I kissed her once
And she smiled
She'll never see
The boy falling out of the sky.

It took me all I had
To turn away from this one
Thought I'd take my chances
I was blinded, I was young
But then all at once
I was back to where I begun
I was burned by the morning
I got too close to the sun.

She'll never know
I was falling
Falling.

I got too close to the sun
It took me all I had
To turn away from this one
Thought I'd take my chances
I was blinded, I was in love
But then all at once
I was back to where I begun
I was burned by morning
I got too close to the sun
I got too close to the sun.
