Dancin' On The Wire
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well, all the girls you see walkin' in here
Acting like you're heaven sent
You tightrope-walkin' song of a gun
You think you're the main event
But the minute our eyes met
Baby, something made you catch your breath
And now you're moving real slow, walkin' on air
Tryin' to find a way to get down from there
Your feet are ice cold, but your heart is on fire
Love's got you baby, dancin' on the wire
Well, come on baby, what do ya say
Live a little dangerous
Ain't no glory in playing it safe
There's room for the both of us
With the moon at our feet
And the world in a front-row seat
We'll be moving real slow, walkin' on air
Honey, we might never come down from there
Turnin' up the heat 'til our hearts are on fire
You and me, baby, dancin' on the wire
You got love on the left, you got love on the right
But you didn't bet on this tonight
You better make sure you're working with a net
'Cause if you come around me you may fall yet
That's right, baby, you better watch your step
You're moving real slow, walkin' on air
Tryin' to find a way to get down from there
Your feet are ice cold, but your heart is on fire
Love's got you baby
Moving real slow, walkin' on air
We might never come down from there
Let's turn up the heat 'til our hearts are on fire
You and me, baby, dancin' on the wire
Don't slip right now, don't get down
You and me, baby, dancin' on the wire
You and me, baby, dancin' on the wire
