lyrics

I stand so far
From the things I said I wanted
I can only see the stars
From the rooftop to the cars
They look a million miles away
Still can't decide
If I fall is it a favor?
Let the wind dry out my eyes
I can walk or I can fly
Like I'm a million miles high
She knows her favorite ice creams
She takes my advice
Skips through the fight scenes
But I'm still on the short leash
I hate when she tugs
And shrugs at my "no please"
I wish that I could say it loud
But I could never be so proud
The rain won't ever leave this cloud
I cave in on the weekends
I'm still half asleep
From week out, and week in
At least I'm never lonely
A stone for my shoulder
Cold matrimony
I wish that could read her mind
The tension in the storyline
I won't make the walk this blind

My mind is on a tightrope
Her lovin' never lets me down
I'm shaking the rainstorm
Pray feet don't you fail me now
My mind is on a tightrope
Her lovin never lets me down
Her lovin never lets me down

It started under moonshine
Drink 'till we head to bed
Never too shy
But then I met the dark shade
Well nice to meet you
You've come a long way
I'm standing till the wind dies out
So I could let my arms back down
And run till I can't be found

My mind is on a tightrope
Her lovin' never lets me down
I'm shaking the rainstorm
Pray feet don't you fail me now
My mind is on a tightrope
Her lovin' never lets me down
Her lovin' never lets me down

And in my fantasy
She is everything I need
But now I'm begging for solid ground

My mind is on a tightrope
Her lovin' never lets me down
My mind is on a tightrope
Her lovin' never lets me down
Her lovin' never lets me down
