tap dancing on the highwire

bright lights and funny clowns

hammin' it up to the circus grounds

horses

big parade

such a pretty sight

this love we made

from way up here

life's just a ball

with you by my side

love is worth the fall

so we're tap dancing on the highwire

we could go tumbling down

but something makes me go higher

think it's having you around

oh

get a look at us playing with fire

oh

we're tap dancing on the highwire

big applause

from the crowd out there

watching our hearts in mid-air

no strings and no fear

keeps or love suspended up here

we know we could lose our balance and fall

but a heart that don't dance

ain't a real heart at all

so we're tap dancing on the highwire

we could go tumbling down

but something makes me go higher

think it's having you around

oh

get a look at us playing with fire

oh

we're tap dancing on the highwire
