Duran Duran - Too Close To The Sun Lyrics






Too close to the sun,
Clouded light in the eyes,
Slipping into your pain,
Pain till it heals,
Gone to my toes,
My heals,

You're looking at the sun,
Sun escape from,
The anti time of nothing new,
Automatic sky,

I plan to view cupid's plan,
You'll discover,
When you fly too close to the sun,

Too close to the sun
Too close,
Too close to the sun,

Back for long,
By the time we realise,

You're looking at the sun,
Sun escape from,
The anti time of nothing new,
Automatic sky,

I plan to view cupid's plan,
You'll discover,
When you fly too close to the sun,

    Too close to the sun,
    Clouded light in the eyes,
    Slipping into your pain,
    Pain till it heals,
    Gone to my toes,
    My heals,
    You're looking at the sun,
    Sun escape from,
    The anti time of nothing new,
    Automatic sky,
    I plan to view cupid's plan,
    You'll discover,
    When you fly too close to the sun,
    Too close to the sun
    Too close,
    Too close to the sun,
    Back for long,
    By the time we realise,
    You're looking at the sun,
    Sun escape from,
    The anti time of nothing new,
    Automatic sky,
    I plan to view cupid's plan,
    You'll discover,
    When you fly too close to the sun

  4. P.... D....

    interesting, Simon has to sing it lower ...This is the only thing that ruins this track...very interesting guitar, I would develop the final solo..

  5. S.... d....

    I didnt like.

  6. T.... ....

    His vocals are not exactly out of tune he is probably using a pitch bender.

  7. M.... R....

    too close to the sun

    tell-tale light in the eyes
    slip into your pain
    painkiller heels comatose
    mighty ah high times ah high

    you're looking out for something - some escape from
    the antique dark of nothing new - automatic sky
    out where the cupids dare to climb - soon these pretty feathers burn
    as you' ll discover when you fly too close to the sun
    too close to the sun

    stay while you're by
    back for a night not back for long
    salome - it's unfolding by the time we realise
    ah high

    still looking out for something - some escape from
    the antique dark of nothing new - automatic sky
    out where the cupids dare to climb - soon these pretty feathers burn
    as you' ll discover when you fly too close to the sun

    too close to the sun

    are you flying too close to the sun?

  8. M.... B....

    ..the vocals intro.. I dont like very much..

  9. R.... B....

    Actually found this tune to be very under rated. Bad quality here, vocals seem transposed up a whole step, but I liked this better than others on the album. A little flat in dynamics perhaps, but I still love it. Bridge sounds like a Warren solo.

  10. T.... S....

    Robert De Niro loves to give in the caricature of himself, Simon Le Bon too.

  11. J.... R....

    In the entire history of DD, this is prolly just 1 of maybe 10-15 songs I don't like.

    J.... R....

    @John Rappaport That's why they omitted it from the final album.

    J.... R....

    John Rappaport agree

  12. e.... ....

    Needs work. Instrumentation great.

  13. M.... G....

    It's perfect as is ... instrumentals and vocals. One of their best.

  14. S.... S....

    out of tune..it could be better...

  15. 4.... ....

    @medazaman maybe its supose to sound like that, different microphone

  16. D.... G....

    ooh i like this one!

  17. e.... ....

    Music is good. I'd change the vocals in some very clear & directed ways to create a hit.

  18. r.... ....

    they aren't as good as 30 years ago... :(
