Tightrope Caught up in the whirlwind, can't catch my breath Knee deep in hot water, broke out in cold sweat Can't catch a turtle, in this rat race Feels like I'm losin' time, at a breakneck pace Afraid of my own shadow, in the face of grace Heart full of darkness, spotlight on my face There was love all around me, but I was looking for revenge Thank God it never found me, would have been the end (I was) Walkin' the tight rope, steppin on my friends Walkin' the tight rope, (it) was a shame and a sin Walkin' the tight rope, between wrong and right Walkin' the tight rope, both day and night Lookin' back in front of me, in the mirror's grin Through eyes of love I see, I'm really lookin at a friend We've all had our problems, that's the way life is My heart goes out to others, who are there to make amends We've been walkin' the tightrope Trying to make it Walkin' the tight rope Every day and every night Walkin' the tight rope Bring it all around Walkin' the tight rope From the lost to found Walkin' the tight rope Streched around the world Walkin' the tight rope Save the boys and girls Walkin' the tight rope Let's make it right Walkin' the tight rope Do it, do it tonight Walkin the tightrope |
