He walked the tightrope, surfed on top of the train
He strangled himself, played the fainting game
He already had rendezvous with death
Maybe today he could draw his last breath
It should be his great day
the high point of his life
He would climb the steep face
without a safety rope
which hasn’t been done before
and the crowd will adore – him
But when he reaches the mountains’ base
the audience keeps quiet and gazes up the face
totally spellbound by a tiny figure
that stuck high above - he recognizes her: Sarah!
Grabbing on the cliff
her body has got stiff
Muscles are getting weak
she can’t hold much longer
She is in great danger
she’s on the brink of death
Between Summit and Abyss
Spoken:
Jake is shaking in his shoes, his pulse is racing, his heart is palpitating, his mouth is dry and his breath is catching. But he has no time to be scared stiff. He starts climbing as fast as he can. He climbs for Sara’s life.
When he reaches her he hugs her tightly
She clings to him - he senses her trembling slightly
A helicopter approaches from above
But still the situation is rather tough
A rope is dropped - he catches it and straps them both - from beneath, they hear the crowd clap
The crew gently pulls up Sarah and Jake
they’re out of danger now but he risked his life for her sake
Spoken:
He feels how strain dissolves all of a sudden.
He’s overwhelmed by emotions.
He recognizes that Sarah’ love has healed him; she has sealed his wounds.
His whole life flashed before his mind’s eye.
He is coming to terms with himself.
They called him the fearless
the king of the fools
but he isn’t a hero
has now so much to loose
They called him the fearless
a man carved of stone
(but he) left behind his past life
(cause) he’s no longer alone
He strangled himself, played the fainting game
He already had rendezvous with death
Maybe today he could draw his last breath
It should be his great day
the high point of his life
He would climb the steep face
without a safety rope
which hasn’t been done before
and the crowd will adore – him
