I was like what you want me to do?

She was like what you want me to choose?

I was like well I didn't say that, but you know

Help me help you, I'm on the balance beam to keep you happy

Or say fuck it, stay mad at mee

Know how that goes, drink, fight, patch things up in the back of a taxi

She can skate thin ice on wheels and no one get wet

She could walk five miles in heels not one foot out of step

And I swear I'll leave you swept,

Off your feet it's just my guess

I'm falling hard on myself, yeah over my head

Yeah, it's like I'm walking on a tightrope

And every step could be the one where I fall

It's like I'm running with a blindfold,

And I could be wrong – but I don't know I don't know!

Headed for the deep end, thursday we fight and forget it by the weekend

Fats learner, I figured out quick

With her it's not getting it's the keeping

Cause she's a gem, so everyone wants her shinning with 'em

Gettin my bulldog on bro,

Mind your step, keep it on your side of fence

I play my demo's one last once

Smile if she like sit, laugh if it sucks!

Cold blooded, she the first in my corner

But now, what's that if it ain't called love?!

When it's all said & done, baby and happy 'till my heads spun

So I might get lucky

I might get none

Like I'm right back at square one!

Yeah, it's like I'm walking on a tightrope

And every step could be the one where I fall

It's like I'm running with a blindfold,

And I can't help it to feel that I'm about losing control!

Yeah, it's like I'm walking on a tightrope

And every step could be the one where I fall

It's like I'm running with a blindfold,

And I could be wrong – but I don't know I don't know!

It's like I'm walking on a tightrope, running with a blindfold

It's like I'm walking on a tightrope, running with my eyes closed

It's like I'm walking on a tightrope, and I could be wrong

I could be wrong, yeah

Yeah, it's like I'm walking on a tightrope

And every step could be the one where I fall

It's like I'm running with a blindfold,

And I can't help it to feel that I'm about losing control!

It's like I'm walking on a tightrope, running with a blindfold

Running with my eyes closed

It's like I'm walking on a tightrope, and I could be wrong

I could be wrong, but I don't know I don't know!
