Tight Rope Songtext
von Justin Hayward

Oh, I used to walk the highwire every night
Yes, I used to walk the tightrope, but it got too tight
I walked the straight and narrow line
My head was spinning ′round
I worked without a safety net, but it was such a long way down

Yes, I used to walk the highwire every night
Yes, I used to walk the tightrope, but you need a head for heights
I walked the straight and narrow rope
My head was spinning 'round
I worked without a safety net, but it was such a long way down


Oh, you might have seen us if we came to your town
This game′s made for heroes and clowns
Thinking about tomorrow, living for today
Never left a note saying, "I'm going away"

Oh, I used to walk the highwire every night
Yes, I used to walk the tightrope, but it got too tight
I walked the straight and narrow line
My head was spinning 'round
I worked without a safety net, but it was such a long way down

Yes, I used to walk the highwire every night
Yes, I used to walk the tightrope, but it got too tight
I walked the straight and narrow line
My head was spinning ′round
I worked without a safety net, but it was such a long way down

(Don′t look down)
(Never look down)
