Description: The lilting waltz of the acoustic guitar stirs up visions of a tight rope walker high on a wire. The band joins in and the music swells, adding to the drama and the uncertainty of a new love that may not last.

Lyrics: Really, I never You're gonna need a lever To see me, or whatever I'm up here with the weather And my heart is rain and shine Don't know if you're gonna be mine And it's not your fault You just stand there and my heart's on fire And I'm terrified You've got me walking on that high wire And if I fall I'm not sure you'll be ready to catch me Please I'm trembling I'd rather just come down I'd feel safer on the ground To build my walls around So I cannot be found And I would just hide there But we're still up in the air And it's not your fault You just stand there and my heart's on fire And I'm terrified You've got me walking on that high wire And if I fall I'm not sure you'll be ready to catch me Please I'm trembling If this wire is a line, then we're balanced on its edge And I'm not sure we're gonna survive I'm torn somewhere between everything and nothing And you, you're barely alive You're barely alive It's not your fault You just stand there and my heart's on fire And I'm terrified You've got me walking on that high wire And if I fall I'm not sure you'll be ready to catch me Please I'm trembling I'm trembling
