Acrobat Songtext
von Johnathan Rice

The child is an acrobat
And he walks upon the wire
Knowing well that he might fall
Still he climbs up higher
And if he should slip
He will surely die
And his body will break
And his soul will fly

Into the night
Where the spirits scream
He will leave this world
And become a dream


My father was a sailor
And he lived upon the water
Knowing well that he might drown
He sailed beyond the harbor
And if he should fall
He will surely die
And his body will sink
And his soul will fly

Into the night
Where the spirits scream
He will leave this world
And become a dream

He will leave this world
And become a dream

Nothing will change
Nothing will change
Nothing will change
Nothing will change
The time goes by
Nothing will
Nothing will
Nothing will
Nothing will


My love, she is my saving grace
She holds me through the winter
Knowing well that I will leave
Still she holds me closer
And if my heart should break
I will surely die
And my blood will flow
And my soul will fly

Into the night
Where the spirits scream
I will leave this world
And become a dream

I will leave this world
And become a dream
I will leave this world
And become a dream
