Tightrope

There's a silver lining
Where the stars take up their shining
And it's brighter than the city lights below
Tired of all the sighing
All the lights around me dying
So I walked until I left what I called home

There above the crowd I
Found a tightrope in the clouds and
So I walked upon the silver lining slow
I saw you on the other side
I tried to run, I tried to fly
But I can't see past shadows hanging low

Ooh
Ooh

Step by step, lightly tread
Don't you fall now
Quietly, silently don't you call out
They don't know how I see whispers of you even so
On this tightrope where lovers all go

There's a grand illusion
That the dreamers take confusion
And they turn it into magic for a show
But I won't walk the line for
All the broken hearts that say so
Cause the only magic dreamers have is hope

Ooh

Step by step, lightly tread
Don't you fall now
Quietly, silently don't you call out
They don't know how I see whispers of you even so
On this tightrope where lovers all go
Ooh

Will you catch me if I fall for you
Will you dance while the crowd holds their breath every step that we do

Step by step, lightly tread
Don't you fall now
Quietly, silently don't you call out
They don't know how I see whispers of you even so
On this tightrope where lovers all go
Ooh
Ooh
