actually, icarus didn't crash into the sun and burn.
daedalus and his son icarus were imprisoned in the cretan labyrinth, which
daedalus himself had created. so daedalus made wax wings for himself and his
son in order to escape. daedalus warned icarus that they should never fly
too close to the sun but icarus, tempted by the beauty of the sun and the
exhilaration of flying higher and higher, disobeyed his father. in the end,
his wax wings melted and he fell and perished.
it is one of my favorite greek myths.
maybe joni means every time you fall in love you think it's the real thing
but it's just a matter of time before your wax wings melt and you land on
our ass. if that's what she meant, i agree with mitchell.
