Like fallen leaves
Victims of time
Memories of old times
Wind blows, they fly
Forgotten promises
Someone else's dreams
It wasn't you
It wasn't me
It wasn't reality
Don't say you're sorry
For once treating me so wrong
You sure did hurt me then
But the tears, they are long gone
So after all this time
When you ask me how I am
Couldn't tell
Couldn't say
Oh, try to understand
Don't touch the sun
Don't touch the sun
It'll burn you alive
Ashes to the ground
And it's all about the stages
Where lovers turn to strangers
Leaving just a shadow in the heart
Oh Lord, I was just a young boy
I thought love's a friend
I couldn't read between the lines
No I didn't understand
That reaching out for you
Was like reaching for the sun
Hurt my eyes
Struck my mind
And then burned my heart
Don't touch the sun [2x]
Oh, the sun
Don't touch the sun
Don't touch the sun, no no [2x]
The sun
Don't touch the sun, no no, no no
It'll burn you alive, no no no
The sun
Don't touch the sun, no, no, no, no
