Balls In The Air
Verse 1
Man with a painted face
Throwing coloured balls in the air
Smiling continually to the audience
As if he doesnt care
Seamlessly he juggles them
His hands just a blur
Each ball rises and falls
His focus never disturbed
Chorus
Each coloured ball contains
A vital part of his life
A challenge, a goal, a love
All balanced in his mind
Verse 2
His smile distracts from a sweaty brow
As the balls travel up and down
Each ball handled with purpose
And never hit the ground
For the juggler started life
Throwing up just one ball
Numbers increased rapidly
As he was expected to handle more
Chorus
Each coloured ball contains
A vital part of his life
A challenge, a goal, a love
All balanced in his mind
Verse 3
He was at his capacity
He could juggle no more
Eyes were aging, mind was going
His entertaining days nearly gone
Audience throws him one more
Juggler panics and falls
His brain and hands overload
All the balls fall to the floor
Chorus
Each coloured ball contains
A vital part of his life
A challenge, a goal, a love
All balanced in his mind
