Lyrics:

Track 14 on “King for a Day…” is about reaching for dreams. It uses the tragic mythical story of Icarus' as an example of over-ambition.
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, about a cloudy sky

Sky is clear tonight
Sky is clear tomorrow
A star is out
I reach for one to sparkle in my hand (in your hand)
A star is out
I will not touch you, I am just a man ('cause he is just a man)

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 sun 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 (see the light)
Shining so bright
I'll dream about a cloudy sky, about a cloudy sky
And every night I shut my eyes
But now I got them open wide (open wide)
You've fallen into my hands
And now you're burning me
And now you're burning me
And every night I shut my eyes
So I don't have to see the light (see the light)
Shining so bright
I'll dream about a cloudy sky, about a cloudy sky

And every night I shut my eyes
But now I've got them open wide, wide! (open wide)
Shining so bright!
I'll dream about a cloudy sky, about a cloudy sky

A cloudy night
Whoo, a cloudy sky
Whoo, a cloudy sky
That's what I say (see the light)
(Shining so bright)
I'll dream about the cloudy sky, about a cloudy sky
Oh! That's right! Oh! A cloudy sky!
