Highwire

Lyrics

What's worthy of a fortune What story's not been told Some men sell their souls For a pocket full of gold So no goodbyes I love you No roses at the door You're this side of heaven And I'm yours forevermore When you move it's music I see the magic and your flare You're more than I imagined Much more than I would dare I'm hanging on a highwire Running out of time I'm livin' on a highwire Walking down the line Some things seem so simple Have an ease of place But now every page I turn I always see you face And I'll try to be romantic End up feeling like a fool I guess if she had any sense She wouldn't be with me at all When you move it's music I see the magic and your flare You're more than I imagined Much more than I would dare I'm hanging on a highwire Running out of time I'm livin' on a highwire Walking down the line I'm hanging on a highwire Running out of time I'm livin' on a highwire Wishing you were mine Now here's an angel resting She's lying in my arms And all the wildness that I have She has an air that cools me, holds me, moves me She has an air that calms There's tooraloora I love you It's in every Irish song But will you stay forever Or in the morning you'll be gone So tell me there's a future Give me some faith Tell me there's some hope And it's filled with love and grace When you move it's music I see the magic and your flare You're more than I imagined Much more than I would dare I'm hanging on a highwire Trying make you mine I'm livin' on a highwire Running out of time I'm hanging on a highwire Running out of time I'm hanging on a highwire Running down the line I'm livin' on a highwire Running out of time I'm hanging on a highwire Walking down the line I'm livin' on a highwire Running out of time I'm hanging on a highwire Wishing you were mine I'm hanging on a highwire Running out of time I'm livin' on a highwire Wishing you were mine I'm hanging on a highwire Running out of time I'm livin' on a highwire Wishing you were mine
