The Acrobat Lyrics - Singles - Johnathan Rice

Oh, the child is an acrobat 

And he walks upon the wire 

Knowing well that he might fall 

Still he climbs up higher 

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 

Oh, my father was a sailor 

And he lived upon the water 

Knowing well that he might drown 

He sailed beyond the harbor 

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 

Oh, 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, well, 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
