Tight Rope

Lyricist：Leon Russell

I'm up on the tight wire, one side's ice and one is fire
It's a circus game with you and me
I'm up on the tight rope, one side's hate and one is hope
But the top hat on my head is all you see

And the wire seems to be the only place for me
A comedy of errors and I'm falling
Like a rubber neck giraffe, you look into my past
Well, baby, you're just too blind to see

I'm up in the spotlight, oh, does it feel right

The altitude seems to get to me
I'm up on the tight wire linked by life and the funeral pyre
Putting on a show for you to see

Like a rubber neck giraffe, you look into my past
Well, baby, you're just too blind to see

I'm up in the spotlight, oh, does it feel right
The altitude really gets to me
I'm up on the tight wire linked by life and the funeral pyre
Putting on a show for you to see
