From the recording Trapeze
. Trapeze (3:40) Ethereal. An exploration of making that wild leap toward one’s dreams.
The message is to listen and follow dreams with such a singular vision undeterred by
others’ expectations.
Lyrics
Trapeze McDonnell/Lindley ©2024
People called me crazy
When I left home to fly the big trapeze
People called me crazy
When I stopped giving out apologies
And all the air seems lighter now
And so much clearer somehow
Somehow
Throughout my whole life
I obeyed a voice inside that was not mine
She’d pin me to the ground
Any time that I stood up to shine
So I wrote my dreams in the dark
But I left no pencil marks
That could give me away
When I am gone
When my breath returns to the air
Let the world know
That I did not refuse the dare
When a dreamer loses hope
A trapeze is just some ropes
That hang in the sky
That hang in the sky
People called me crazy
When I left home to fly the big trapeze
