Tightrope Dancer Lyrics

Nightfall, do you like the way it feels?
Does your heart begin to rise at sundown?
Does it make you cry to see the heartache?
When the city night takes another life.

[Pre-chorus]
Tightrope dancer up so high.
Dancing high above it all.

You call it make believe, a fool believes in heaven.
But deep inside you know it's real.
I cry masquerade, a fool denies a savior.
When you're alone how do you feel?

[Pre-chorus]

[Chorus 1]
I see you high above it all.
Tightrope dancer.
I see you as you start to fall
Tightrope dancer.

[Solo]

You call this paradise, but nothing lasts forever.
'Cause life's a vapor gone in a flash.
Just like a jester in a king's court.
When the hammer falls, tell me will you stand?

[Pre-chorus]

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2]
Tightrope dancer as you call.
Tightrope dancer.
And will he hear you as you fall?
Tightrope dancer.
