Highwire
Highwire
Every day, I learn the way,
gravity, in time
Watch the world below me
turn on a dime
Upwards the crow flies
Straight down the line,
Balancing my life,
On the high wire
When I was the acrobat
Young and unafraid,
(The) spotlight captured
every move, I made
Falling for glory,
day after day
Climbing the ladder,
to the highwire
ON A HIGHWIRE (multivoice echo)
Halfway gone to heaven,
High above the everyday,
Underneath the sky.
ON A HIGHWIRE
All the upturned faces,
Hang their expectations ... high ... wire
Every night I dream the ways, wishes, desires
Raking out the ashes from the fire
Under the stars
and I opened up my mind
Reaching for mercy, on a highwire
ON A HIGH WIRE
Halfway gone ta' heaven,
High above the everyday,
Underneath the sky
All the upturned faces,
Hang their expectations,
On the highway
Every day, I learn the way,
gravity, in time
Watch the world below me
turn on a dime
Upwards the crow flies
Straight down the line,
Balancing my life,
On the high wire
When I was the acrobat
Young and unafraid,
(The) spotlight captured
every move, I made
Falling for glory,
day after day
Climbing the ladder,
to the highwire
ON A HIGHWIRE (multivoice echo)
Halfway gone to heaven,
High above the everyday,
Underneath the sky.
ON A HIGHWIRE
All the upturned faces,
Hang their expectations ... high ... wire
Every night I dream the ways, wishes, desires
Raking out the ashes from the fire
Under the stars
and I opened up my mind
Reaching for mercy, on a highwire
ON A HIGH WIRE
Halfway gone ta' heaven,
High above the everyday,
Underneath the sky
All the upturned faces,
Hang their expectations,
On the highway
