jacobs dream – funambulism lyrics

a seed was sown within my mind and began to lead my heart
it seemed i walked a fine line of benevolence or l-st
a time to focus on the goal, i drew a line in the sand
just how far would i go to see the dream
the dream within my hands

on the hard road now because nothing good is free
and as the sun is rising on another day
do i know why i have come this way
it’s not for me alone, but for another’s sake.
my mind begins to clear as the urgency of vision starts to wake…

surveying the past i see my life unfold before me
but what of this vision that was given to me
material p-ssions seemed to rule the world i lived in
it was money and power with a sensuous seed
it was hard to walk away!

straying from a vision while walking through the shadows
searching for answers making dreams for myself
time was of the essence and i was quickly fading
but a voice it kept calling, it kept leading me on
don’t you know you’ve lost your way
don’t let your vision fade away – no!

walking on a tightrope in the valley of decision
there’s so many choices in the chasm below
behind me is the past and before is the future
but a voice it keeps calling, it keeps leading me on
don’t you know, you hold the key
and that your future lies in me
