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 will burn you alive, ashes to the ground   And it's all about the stages when lovers turn to strangers   Leaving just a shadow in your heart, oh Lord      I was 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, stopped my mind and then burned my heart, Lord      Don't touch the sun, don't touch the sun   It will burn you alive, ashes to the ground   And it's all about the stages when lovers turn to strangers   Leaving just a shadow in your heart      Don't touch the sun, don't touch the sun   Ooh, the sun, don't touch the sun      Don't touch the sun, don't touch the sun   It will burn you alive, ashes to the ground   And it's all about the stages when lovers turn to strangers   Leaving just a shadow in your heart      Don't touch the sun, no, no, don't touch the sun   No, no, 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
