Lyrics

[00:03.22] Vaughan Stevie Ray
[00:06.15] Apple9001
[00:07.98] tightrope
[00:09.70] Caught up in a whirlwind can't catch my breath
[00:14.72] Knee deep in hot water broke out in a cold sweat
[00:19.89] Can't catch a turtle in this rat race
[00:24.59] Feels like I'm losin' time at breakneck pace
[00:29.91]
[00:37.63] Afraid of my own shadow in the face of grace
[00:42.24] Heart full of darkness spotlight on my face
[00:47.24]
[00:49.73] There was love all around me but I was lookin' for revenge
[00:52.57] Thank God it never found me would have been the end
[00:57.61] (CHORUS):
[01:00.67] (I was) walkin' the tightrope steppin' on my friends
[01:04.61] Walkin' the tightrope (it) was a shame and a sin
[01:09.48] Walkin' the tightrope between wrong and right
[01:14.51] Walkin' the tightrope both day and night
[01:43.69]
[02:21.42] Lookin' back in front of me in the mirror's a grin
[02:30.61] Through the eyes of love I see I'm really lookin' at a friend
[02:35.43] My heart goeso ut to other who are there to make amends
[02:45.10] (CHORUS)
[02:48.39] We've been walkin' the tightrop tryin' to make it right
[02:52.05] Walkin' the tightrope every day and every night
[02:57.01] Walkin' the tightrope bring it all around
[03:02.21] Walkin' the tightrope from the lost and found
[03:08.64] Walkin' the tightrope stretched around the world
[03:14.94] Walkin' the tightrope save the boys and girls
[03:19.76] Walkin' the tightrope let's make it right
[03:24.54] Walkin' the tightrope do it do it tonight
[03:29.62] Walkin' the tightrope
[03:40.04]
