Well here comes heaven Walking down the street again Gonna pick you up Knock you off your feet again Liking a living nightmare In paradise Like a fist out of hell With a grip like a vice On the highwire, you can't reach me You can't bring me down You can't reach me Caught a glimpse of your sad sad face Somewhere special do you know the place Where every fairytale turns real? When you start to feel The way that I feel On the highwire, you can't reach me You can't bring me down You can't reach me You can't bring me down
Stretching out your hand Reaching out for friendliness Staring out the window Thinking what a dirty mess A tidal wave in time and space When you can't fall it's such a waste The walls of doubt are falling down Running deep with the music loud Flying high, don't look down It's been so long since we walked in the moonlight On the highwire, you can't reach me You can't bring me down, you can't reach me You can't bring me down, you can't reach me You can't bring me down, baby I'm wired
