This is from their second album Masque. I'd say they had the rock ballad pretty well down by this point.
Early in the morning sunlight Soaring on the wings of dawn Here I'll live and die with my wings in the skyY'all can keep yer rap. Don't need it none hyar.
And I won't come down no more
Higher than a bird I'm flying Crimson skies of ice and fire
Borne on wings of steel, I have so much to feel
And I won't come down no more
Sail on, sail on I will rise each day to meet the dawn
So high, so high I've climbed the mountains of the sky
Without my wings You know, I'd surely die
I found my freedom flying high I've climbed the mountains of the sky
Floating on a cloud of amber
Searching for the rainbow's end Earth so far below me, I'm here alone
Free, I can't come down no more

FWIW, I prefer Masque to Leftoverture. Point of Know Return was a definite step down from both of those, and where I lost interest.
Icarus is easily the best track, but it's followed very closely by Two Cent's Worth.
I haven't spent any time getting to know their eponymous album. Seems to be always something else in the musical hopper.
I had it - on vinyl and cd.......
Never heard it before. cool! I should learn it and do a cowboy, slower quieter version!
Allie and I love "Point of No Return" and "Carry on My Wayward Son," which have become anthems for the Winchester boys on the TV show "Supernatural" (love them boys!). Jeff, FYI, my Dad has been hospitalized a few times in recent week or so and is declining. Jenny and I are traveling to Mich. tomorrow to help Mom with decisions about his care and sort out the financial impacts, etc. XXXOOO
Thanks for the comment, Amy!
Yeah, your mother has been keeping Sis and I updated. Hate that it's coming down to this for y'all. Positive karma from me, if that helps....
