Catch Me

Suzanne Mondoux · 13 June 2020

For so long I was all that I could be to me and you I walked in my shadow into a world unknown I found joy in what I imagined I jumped and I caught me

Catch me in the highest falls I caught me So strong I was in free fall of my life Catch me is my finest act I walked on stage into the light

So fine the audience waiting for me I smiled with delight Should I stumble and fall Catch me is reserved just for me

In my free fall like a feather I floated here and there I look beyond and above to places I never gone Catch me is reserved just for me should I fall When I fall I look forward to the day I catch me

No sitting quietly in the days to come The audience await to witness the grandest show of their life I look beyond and ahead to a place I know so well What a splendid moment it will be when I fall and catch me

Trick of the trade is to know ahead where you’ll stumble Trip and fall with glee and stand on your feet with grace Catch me is reserved just for this moment of me I’m reserved just for me in my fallen day for the grandest days

I look ahead and all around to places I once was I caught me in my free falls, so fine my stumbles I tripped and fell on many of occasions Catch me is reserved just for me
