Tightrope (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

I’m on a tightrope
You’ve got your reasons
When did it get so hard to breathe
Hot in the spotlight
I’m feeling so tired
Your hands are burned from holding me
And maybe you and I will fall in time
Eventually
Maybe we’ll both die trying
But I can’t bring myself to leave
‘Cause I’ve looked

And I ain’t seen nothing like you
The way you light up every room tonight so easily
And I have moved mountains, babe
Just to stumble into your good grace
And I, I still can’t compete

You’re on a tightrope
I’ve got my reasons
How did we get so tangled?
You turn, I stay straight
I bend as you break
We’re so messed up but I know
That you and I will fall in time
Eventually
Or maybe we’ll both die trying

And I ain’t seen nothing like you
The way you light up every room tonight so easily
And I have moved mountains, babe
Just to stumble into your good grace
And I, I still can’t compete

You and I will fall in time
Eventually
Or maybe we’ll both die trying

‘Cause I ain’t seen nothing like you
The way you light up every room tonight so easily
And I have moved mountains, babe
Just to stumble into your good grace
And I, I still can’t compete

Tightrope (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

You should have been an angel
It would’ve suited you
My gold-leafed triptych angel
She knows just what to do
In the half light of morning
In our world between the sheets
I swear I saw her angel wing
My vision was complete
And I know I’ll never want another lover my sweet
Can there be more in this world
Than the joy of just watching you sleep?
I don’t know just what to feel
Won’t someone tell me my love’s real?

Are we etched in stone
Or just scratched in the sand
Waiting for the waves to come and reclaim the land?
Will the sun shine all sweetness and light
Burn us to a cinder
Our third stone satellite?

I’m on a tightrope baby nine miles high
Striding through the clouds
On my ribbon in the sky
I’m on a tightrope, baby, one thing I’ve found
I don’t know how to stop
And it’s a long, long, long
Long way down

She’s all that ever mattered
And all that ever will
My cup, it runneth over
I’ll never get my fill
The boats in the harbour slip from their chains
Head for new horizons
Let’s do the same

I’m on a tightrope baby nine miles high
Striding through the clouds
On my ribbon in the sky
I’m on a tightrope, baby, one thing I’ve found
I don’t know how to stop
And it’s a tightrope baby nine miles high
Striding through the clouds
On my ribbon in the sky
I’m on a tightrope, baby, one thing I’ve found
I don’t know how to stop
And it’s a long, long, long
Long way down
Long way down

Words and music by bob seger

Saw you walkin’ on a backstreet honey
Tryin’ to slip away
Did you find someone to take your money
And did it make your day
Take a lesson from someone who’s been there
There are lots of roads that lead you nowhere

I can see it in your blank stare baby
Someone’s done you in
Everybody hits the hard truth some time
It’s your time again
So you’re lonesome and the night’s approachin’
Honey this is where the tough get goin’

Welcome to the tightrope
Between memory and pain
Welcome to the tightrope
Between the freedom and the chain
Welcome to the tightrope
Stretched high above the street
Welcome to the tightrope
It’s right beneath your feet

Once you learn to balance truth and sorrow
You can worry about the rest tomorrow

Up there on the tightrope
Oh it’s a tightrope
You’re walkin’ on a tightrope

Tightrope (Letra)

They say some days you’re gonna win,
They say some days you’re gonna lose.
I tell you i got news for you
Your losin’ all the time you never win
If you believe that’s how it’s gonna be i’d better put you down
Get off your tightrope up there come down on
The ground you gotta save me now,
You better turn around.
When i looked around, i was heading down.
Won’t somebody throw me down a line.

They say some days you gotta give–
They say some days you gotta take–
If that’s the way it’s gotta be,
Roll it over and you will see.
The city streets are full of people going nowhere making time.
The change from night to day is really only hours,
It’s just along the line can’t you see the sign
When i looked around, i was heading down,
Won’t somebody throw me down a line.

I want to look you straight in the eye,
I want to tell you how i really feel,
I can feel the wheels turnin’ round,
Won’t somebody throw me down a line
The city streets are full of people going nowhere making time,
The change from night to day is really only hours
It’s just along the line, can’t you see the sign
When i closed my eyes, i was so surprised
Somebody had thrown me down the line–stopped me drownin’

And the boys were waving and shouting and the girls were saying eeek. then they disappeared under the surface of the water and when they came up again they were laughing and gasping for breath.
His dream i’m on a tightrope and i’m tipping back and forth trying to keep my balance. and below me are all my relatives and if i fall i’ll crush them. this long thin line. this song line. this

Can’t find yourself
If you’re lost in a crowd
Can’t hear advice
If you’re screaming out loud
For someone please listen to me
Can’t figure out
What you don’t understand
Can’t realize
What you don’t comprehend
But it’s always
Been plain to see
But if you run
Too far away
Oh if you run
Don’t be afraid

It’s just a tightrope
Walker on fire
Razorblade wire
It’s a high hope
That you acquire
It’s a tightrope
Razorblade wire

Can’t say hello
If you’re never around
Can’t pace yourself
If you never slow down
‘cause your always
Running full speed
Can’t take too much
If you don’t let them in
Can’t feel the touch
Of a life within
If you’re always

Fulfilling the need

But if you run
Too far away
Oh if you run
Don’t be afraid

It’s just a tightrope
Walker on fire
It’s a tightrope
Razorblade wire
It’s a high hope
That you acquire
It’s a tightrope
Of razorblade wire

Oh if you run
Too far away
Oh if you run
Don’t be afraid

It’s just a tightrope
Walker on fire
It’s a tightrope
Razorblade wire
It’s a high hope
That you acquire
It’s a tightrope
Of razorblade wire

Tightrope (Letra)

My words are weapons
In which i murder you
With but please don’t get scared please do not turn your head
We are the future the 21st. century
Dyslexic glue sniffing cybersluts with homicidal minds and handguns
We are the same nothing
Nothing will change
We are the same
Will change there is a thin line between what’s good and what is evil
I will tiptoe down that line
But i feel unstable
My life is a circus and i’m tripping down the tightrope
There’s nothing left to save me now
So i will not look down
And it happens again and again and again

Tightrope (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Yes i used to walk the highwire every night
Yes i used to walk the tightrope
But it got too tight.
I walked the straight and narrow line
My head was spinning round
I worked without a safety net
But it was such a long way down.

Yes i used to walk the highwire every night
Yes i used to walk the tightrope
But you need a head for heights.
I walked the straight and narrow rope
My head was spinning round
I worked without a safety net
But it was such a long way down.

Oh you might have seen us
If we came to your town
This game’s made for heroes
And clowns.
Not thinking about tomorrow
Living for today
I never left a note saying
I’m going away.

I used to walk the highwire every night
Oh i used to walk the tightrope
But it got too tight.
I walked the straight and narrow line
My head was spinning round
I worked without a safety net
But it was such a long way down.

Tightrope (Letra)

‘Cause they can’t tip all on the scene with you
What you talk about it
Talkin’ about it
When you get elevated
They love it or they hate it
You dance up on them haters
Keep getting funky on the scene
While they jumpin’ round you
They trying to take all your dreams
But you can’t allow it

‘Cause baby whether you’re high or low
Whether you’re high or low
You gotta tip on the tightrope
(Tip, tip on it)
Tip on the tightrope
(Tip, tip on it)
