man on a wire

who would've thought that i'd be here by myself?

who would've thought that you'd be bad for my health?

now i know

now i know i'm just a man on a wire

who would've thought about the cause and effect?

yesterday's love is now tomorrow's regret

now i know

now i know i'm just a man on a wire

no

i can't look down

i'm tryna fight the feeling

i will fall to the ground

if i ever see you

'cause i feel like i'm walkin' a tightrope

my heart is in my throat

i'm counting on high hopes

to get me over you

and i've got my eyes closed

as long as the wind blows

i'm counting on high hopes

to get me over you

you

'cause i'm a man on a wire

on a wire

i'm a man on a wire

on a wire

who would've thought i'd see you with someone else?

who would've thought that i'd be in such a mess?

now you know

now you know i'm just a man on a wire

but i walk that line

i'll try to keep my senses

make it to the other side

i know the consequences

and i feel like i'm walkin' a tightrope

my heart is in my throat

i'm counting on high hopes

to get me over you

and i've got my eyes closed

as long as the wind blows

i'm counting on high hopes

to get me over you

you

'cause i'm a man on a wire

on a wire

i'm a man on a wire

on a wire

'cause i'm a man on a wire

on a wire

'cause i'm a man on a wire

on a wire

the higher it gets

oh

the more i miss the ground

no safety nets

oh

now you're not around

i have to keep walking

to keep me from falling down

feels like i'm walkin' a tightrope

my heart is in my throat

i'm counting on high hopes

to get me over you

and i've got my eyes closed

as long as the wind blows

i'm counting on high hopes

to get me over you

you

'cause i'm a man on a wire

on a wire

i'm a man on a wire

on a wire

i'm a man on a wire

on a wire

i'm a man on a wire

on a wire
