Faith No More - Just a man
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, A cloudy sky I'll dream about a cloudy sky, a cloudy 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 Shining so bright I'll dream about a cloudy sky, a cloudy sky And every night I shut my eyes But now I've got them open wide You've fallen into my hands And now you're burning me You're burning me Made by me
