Lover’s Leap
Music by Ada Bird Wolfe & Jamieson Trotter, Lyrics by Ada Bird Wolfe
Leaping, turning high,
Lover tries to catch my eye,
He is fearless as he
vaults into the sky.
Shall I join the supple dance
Or let it pass me by?
I have learned to be alone,
Why risk a melancholy dive
Leaping, turning high,
Like a spring lamb light at play,
Shall I leave my heavy heart
And take a chance?
It would be so fine to find my
Hopeful youth again,
With a leaping, fearless guy
Perhaps my heart can mend.
Song of the lover's leap,
Arms open wide,
Song of the quick caught breath
When I'm beside him.
I thought I had signed off love,
Perhaps I spoke too fast
But we are often branded
By our past.
Leaping, turning high,
I'll let Lady Luck decide,
Flip a coin and if it's heads
Then I will try.
Love is such a stubborn thing
It sings and sings again
Calling ’til we answer
Its sweet voice and come back in
