never gonna let go

balanced on a wire

high above the earth tonight

looking for an answer

finding that warning sign

slowly falling

into my emotions

drowning in an ocean

and i can't find you

balanced on a wire

high above the earth tonight

now i'm hanging by a thread

but i never felt so alive

and to the very last minute

we will always be death defying

caught in the act of flying solo

this acrobat is lost

and i don't know

where i'll land

as i reach for your hand

all of the lights can be so blinding

every time i jump you always find me

without a net

so please don't forget

cause right now i'm out of control

swear you're never gonna let go

tell me not to look down

promise that you're gonna stay

spinning like a top now

feeling like i'm gonna break

into nothing

tell me that there's still hope

back up on the tightrope

faster and faster

balanced on a wire

high above the earth tonight

and it doesn't make sense

how me and you still survive

to the very last minute

we will always be death defying

caught in the act of flying solo

this acrobat is lost

and i don't know

where i'll land

as i reach for your hand

all of the lights can be so blinding

but every time i jump you always find me

without a net

so please don't forget

cause right now i'm out of control

swear you're never gonna let go

now i'm hanging by a thread

but i never felt so alive

to the very last minute

we will always be death defying

caught in the act of flying solo

this acrobat is lost

and i don't know

where i'll land

as i reach for your hand

all of the lights can be so blinding

but every time i jump you always find me

without a net

so please don't forget

cause right now i'm out of control

swear you're never gonna let go

cause right now i'm out of control

swear you're never gonna let go
