Tightrope Lyrics
Tightrope Song Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Some people long for a life that is simple and planned
Tied with a ribbon
Some people won't sail the sea 'cause they're safer on land
To follow what's written
But I'd follow you to the great unknown
Off to a world we call our own
[Chorus]
Hand in my hand
And we promised to never let go
We're walkin' a tightrope
High in the sky
We can see the whole world down below
We're walkin' a tightrope
Never sure, never know how far we could fall
But it's all an adventure
That comes with a breathtakin' view
Walkin' a tightrope
[Post-Chorus]
With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
With you
[Verse 2]
Mountains and valleys and all that will come in between
Desert and ocean
You pulled me in and together we're lost in a dream
Always in motion
So I risk it all just to be with you
And I risk it all for this life we choose
[Chorus]
Hand in my hand
And you promised to never let go
We're walkin' a tightrope
High in the sky
We can see the whole world down below
We're walkin' a tightrope
Never sure, will you catch me if I should fall?
Well, it's all an adventure
That comes with a breathtakin' view
Walkin' a tightrope
[Post-Chorus]
With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
With you
With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
With you, ooh
With you
