The Great Valerio (John Peel Session, 1/1/1973)

Live At The BBC

Richard Thompson Linda Thompson

歌词

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

Until our heart turn like the seaons

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
