lyrics

Mocking Bird, Mocking Bird
Won't you sing to me?
Let your notes fly fast and true
As they ring down from your tree
Loose the lines from time to time
And let the tune run free
Mocking Bird, Mocking Bird
Won't you sing to me

Silhouette, Silhouette
Won't you come to life?
I've drawn you out a thousand times
But the ink has never dried
And Lord I know it's hard to hold
The hand of an outline
Silhouette, Silhouette
Won't you come to life

Time and again I find the road I'm walking
Ain't a strange to the face of my heel
And time and again I find I keep on locking
My heart out the way that I feel
Honey if you're scared
That you're going nowhere
I hope you know I'll meet you there

Acrobat, Acrobat
Dance me through your hoops
Lace me up and down with secrets
Of your circus troupe
And should your tent come tumbling down
You can join me in the zoo
Acrobat, Acrobat
Dance me through your hoops

Matador, Matador
Sharpen up your blade
Stick it through that part of you
That hides under your cape
Pretty soon the bulls will stir
From the bed you made
Matador, Matador
Sharpen up your blade

Time and again I find the road I'm walking
Ain't a strange to the face of my heel
And time and again I find I keep on locking
My heart out the way that I feel
Honey if you're scared
That you're going nowhere
I hope you know I'll meet you there
