Lyrics

Walking Out On A Wire - Written by Eric Lowen, Dan Navarro & Rick Boston
 
Don't waste your breath
Don't waste my time
If I hear one more excuse I'll lose my mind
It's been a quiet war
Behind closed doors
Ain't it getting hard to keep your balance anymore
 
(chr)
Walking on a wire
Higher and higher
You told the truth but you're still a liar
Walking on a wire
 
You deal in black and white
And everything in-between
You were blessed with such finesse I almost know what you mean
Now I could close my eyes
Pretend to let it pass
But you leave on borrowed time and it would never last
 
(chr)
Walking on a wire
Higher and higher
You told the truth but you're still a liar
Walking on a wire
Walking on a wire
Higher and higher
You told the truth but you're still a liar
Walking on a wire
 
(br)
And how does it feel with the whole world watching
Do you feel like you're gonna fall
Was it safer with your back up against the wall
And why did you try when you knew you were losing
Just one mistake and you'll lose it all
 
Don't waste your breath
Don't waste my time
If I hear one more excuse I'll lose my mind
 
(chr)
Walking on a wire
Higher and higher
You told the truth but you're still a liar
Walking on a wire
Walking on a wire
Higher and higher
You told the truth but you're still a liar
Walking on a wire
