Tightrope
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.
27 Days since we've spoken,
I think of all the ways that you might have tried
Then I realize, it's good to be wrong sometimes.
Found another crack in my ceiling,
I took another glance and it disappeared
Fear can be bold, but courage takes it all.
You could have lied to me (everything's alright)
And would you lie to me, (just to change your mind)
'Cause in a heartbeat you open up my eyes
The hardest part is giving up
You can find me here at the circus,
I walk another tightrope to watch me fall
Then I realize, it's good to be wrong
You could have lied to me (everything's alright)
And would you lie to me, (just to change your mind)
'Cause in a heartbeat you open up my eyes
The hardest part is giving up
Keeping your balance is easy
When you are sure of the promise
That you'll never fall.
You could have lied to me (everything's alright)
And would you lie to me, (just to change your mind)
'Cause in a heartbeat you open up my eyes
The hardest part is giving up
You could have lied to me (everything's alright)
You wouldn't lie to me, (just to change your mind)
'Cause in a heartbeat you open up my eyes
I guess I won't be giving up
