Man on a Wire

Who'd've thought that I'd be here by myself

Who'd've thought that you'd be bad for my health

Now I know, now I know

I'm just a man on a wire, oh

Who'd've thought I'd be the cause and effect?

Your steady love is not tomorrow's regret

Now I know, now I know

I'm just a man on a wire, oh

No I can't look down, I'm trying to fight the feeling

I will fall to the ground, if I ever see you

'Cause I feel like I'm walkin' a tight rope

And my heart is in my throat

I'm counting on high hopes

To get me over you

And I've got my eyes closed

As long as the wind blows

I'm counting on high hopes

To get me over you, you

'Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wire

I'm a man on a wire, on a wire

Who'd've thought I'd see you with someone else

Who'd've thought that I'd be in such a mess

Now you know, now you know

I'm just a man on a wire, oh oh

When I walk that line, I try to keep my senses

Make it to the other side, I know the consequences

And I feel like I'm walkin' a tight rope

And my heart is in my throat

I'm counting on high hopes

To get me over you

And I've got my eyes closed

As long as the wind blows

I'm counting on high hopes

To get me over you, you

'Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wire

I'm a man on a wire, on a wire

'Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wire

'Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wire

The higher I get

The more I miss the ground

Now safe than better

Now you're not around

I have to keep walking

To keep me from falling down, yeah

Feels like I'm walkin' a tight rope

And my heart is in my throat

I'm counting on high hopes

To get me over you

And I've got my eyes closed

As long as the wind blows

I'm counting on high hopes

To get me over you, you

'Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wire

I'm a man on a wire, on a wire

I'm a man on a wire, on a wire

I'm a man on a wire, on a wire
