Man on a Wire - The Script
Who would have thought
that I'd be here by myself?

Who would have 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 have thought
I'd be the cause and effect?

Your steady love
is not tomorrow's regrets
Now I know, now I know
I'm just a man on a wire

No, I can't look down
I'm trying to fight the feeling
I will fall to the ground

If I ever see you
'Cause I feel like
I'm walkin' on a tightrope
My heart is in my throat
I'm counting on high hope
to get me over you

And I've got my eyes closed
As long as the wind blows
I'm counting on high hope
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 have thought
I'd see you with someone else?

Who would have 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 try to keep my senses
Make it to the other side

I know the consequences and
I feel like I'm walkin'
on a tight road
My heart is in my throat
I'm counting on high hope
to get me over you

And I've got my eyes closed
As long as the wind blows
I'm counting on high hope
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 I get oh
The more I miss the ground

No safetiness oh
Now you're not around
I have to keep walking
To keep me from falling down

Feels like I'm walkin'
on a tightrope
My heart is in my throat
I'm counting on high hope
to get me over you,

And I've got my eyes closed
As long as the wind blows
I'm counting on high hope
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 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
