Tightrope

I stand so far
 From the things I said I wanted
 I can only see the stars
 From the rooftop to the cars
 They look a million miles away
 ♪
 Still can't decide
 If I fall is it a favor?
 Let the wind dry out my eyes
 I can walk or I can fly
 Like I'm a million miles high
 
 She knows my favorite ice creams
 She takes my advice, skips through the fight scenes
 But I'm still on the short leash
 I hate when she tugs and shrugs at my "No, please"
 I wish that I could say it loud
 But I could never be so proud
 The rain won't ever leave this cloud
 I cave in on the weekеnds
 I'm still half asleep from week out and week in
 At least I'm never lonеly
 A stone for my shoulder, cold matrimony
 I wish that I could read her mind
 The tension in the storyline
 I won't make the walk this blind
 My mind is on a tightrope
 Her lovin' never lets me down
 I'm shaking in the rainstorm
 Pray feet don't you fail me now
 My mind is on a tightrope
 Her lovin' never lets me down
 Her lovin' never lets me down
 
 It started under moonshine
 Drink 'till we head to bed, never too shy
 But then I met the dark shade
 Well nice to meet you, you've come a long way
 I'm standing 'till the wind dies out
 So I could let my arms back down
 And run 'till I can't be found
 My mind is on a tightrope
 Her lovin' never lets me down
 I'm shaking in the rainstorm
 Pray feet don't you fail me now
 My mind is on a tightrope
 Her lovin' never lets me down
 Her lovin' never lets me down
 ♪
 And in my fantasy
 She is everything I need
 But now I'm begging for some solid ground
 ♪
 My mind is on a tightrope
 Her lovin' never lets me down
 My mind is on a tightrope
 Her lovin' never lets me down
