The Great Valerio - Live

Lyrics

High up above the crowd
 The great Valerio is walking
 The rope seems hung from cloud to cloud
 And time stands still while he is walking
 His eye is steady on the target
 His foot is sure upon the rope
 Alone and peaceful as a mountain
 And certain as the mountain slope
 We falter at the sight
 We stumble in the mire
 Fools who think they see the light
 Prepare to balance on the wire
 But we learn to watch together
 And feed on what we see above
 ? Till our hearts turn like the seasons
 And we are acrobats of love
 How we wonder, how we wonder
 Watching far below
 We would all be that great hero
 The great Valerio
 Come all you upstart jugglers
 Are you really ready yet?
 Who will help the tightrope walker
 When he tumbles to the net
 So come with me to see Valerio
 As he dances through the air
 I? m your friend until you use me
 And then be sure I won? t be there
 How we wonder, how we wonder
 Watching far below
 We would all be that great hero
 The great Valerio
