Tightrope Songtext
von Movements

I′ve been staring at the world from a tightrope
Worried sick but I'm hanging on to high hopes
And I′m swinging hard, always hoping that I strike gold
But you walk by and it's like you've got your eyes closed

And I don′t mean to intrude
But I′m dying to reach you

So can I try to be somebody you could love?
I don't know if I could ever measure up
And you took my breath like water in my lungs
But I would die to be somebody you could love

Oh

I never know just what to say, so I keep shut
It′s like I'm always too afraid I′m gonna freeze up
And if I try too hard, then it's too much
But if I don′t start soon, I'm gonna lose touch
It's just the way you give me too much to choose from

And I don′t mean to intrude
But I′m dying to reach you


So can I try to be somebody you could love?
I don't know if I could ever measure up
But you took my breath like water in my lungs
And I would die to be somebody you could love

Oh
Oh

Don′t remind me I could never be enough
Stay beside me 'cause I only want your love
Don′t remind me I could never be enough
Stay beside me 'cause I only want your love

I′ve been staring at the world from a tightrope
Worried sick but I'm hanging on to high hopes

So can I try to be somebody you could love?
I don't know if I could ever measure up
But you took my breath like water in my lungs
And I would die to be somebody you could love

Oh
Oh

Yeah, you took my breath like water in my lungs
And I would die to be somebody you could love
