Viewing Lyrics for Journey Of A Lifetime:
| | | Artist: | Various Artists |
| | Album: | Aspects Of Love | | Track: | Journey Of A Lifetime | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 47 | | | | Lyrics: | A circus in Paris. Jenny's 15th birthday. The performance is in full
swing. We see George,
Rose, Alex, and Jenny and at the same time they
show that they are thenselves watching.
We are greeted by a whirlwind of activity: clowns, jugglers, tumblers
perform under the
streamers and gaudy lights. Various of the circus
performers, led by a chanteuse in
exaggerated make-up and costume,
strike up a some as accompaniment -- part hymn in praise of
daring, part
invitation for a volunteer from the audience.
At certain points the
chanteuse has the circus audience joining in with
the song).
CHORUS:
Take the
journey of a lifetime!
It's only just a drum-roll away!
On the journey of a
lifetime
Every day's a high-wire day!
CHANTEUSE:
If you've got what it
takes,
The stars and streamers are yours!
Take a risk in the ring
And feel the thrill
of applause!
(Drum-roll. A knife-thrower appears and with his assistant enters the
ring.
Applause)
If you reach
For the moon,
If you aim
For the stars,
Then the
moon
And the sky,
Can be yours --
Come on and try!
There's a prize
To be
won
Take a risk,
Take a ride,
Right this way,
Have a go,
Try your luck
--
And step inside!
If you reach
For the moon,
If you aim
For the
stars,
Then the moon
And the sky,
Can be yours --
Come on and try!
(A
volunteer is now being sought for the knife-thrower's act. Attention
focuses on Jenny and
Alex, seated side by side. She asks him to step
forward, and when eventually he does, it is
much to the annoyance of
George. Alex is led away by the assistant)
CHORUS:
Take
the journey of a lifetime!
It's only just a drum-roll away!
On the journey of a
lifetime
Every day's a high-wire day!
CHANTEUSE:
If you've got what it
takes,
The stars and streamers are yours!
Take a risk in the ring
And feel the thrill
of applause!
(Alex now reappears clad in a sequined circus jacket. He takes up his
position and duly braves the hail of knives. The trick is greeted with
great approval by
all but George, who is evidently becoming increasingly
distressed by Jenny'sobsession for his
nephew. As the applause fades the
song starts up once again.)
If you reach
For the
moon,
If you aim
For the stars,
Then the moon
And the sky,
Can be yours
--
Come on and try!
There's a prize
To be won
Take a risk,
Take a
ride,
Right this way,
Have a go,
Try your luck --
And step inside | | | |
