Dancing on a Highwire / Spotlight (work in progress) Songtext
von The Alan Parsons Project

We′re living in a different reality
We're toeing the same line
We give in we call it neutrality
A joke with no punchline
The silver plated hero
Meets a golden hearted whore
The odds will give you zero
She′ll be leaving in a few days more
Moving on forever
Maybe she don't care
Holding on together
Maybe it just ain't there
You′re dancing on a highwire
Need to be so sure
There used to be a lifeline
There isn′t anymore
We are the same with no similarity
Talk at the same time
We believe in freedom and charity
As long as I get mine


The ivory madonna
Is walking through the door
You watch her from a window
It doesn't matter anymore
Moving on forever
Maybe she don′t care
Holding on together
Maybe it just ain't there
You′re dancing on a highwire
You need to be so sure
There used to be a lifeline
There isn't anymore
Moving on forever
Maybe she don′t care
Holding on together
Maybe it just ain't there
You're dancing on a highwire
Need to be so sure
There used to be a lifeline
There isn′t anymore
Dancing on a highwire
You need to be so sure
There used to be a lifeline
There isn′t anymore
