I woke up before the sun Chased your ghost across the yard Through the fog and tumbling dark 'til you were gone Virginia I can hardly breathe I've forgotten how to sleep And your face still haunts my dreams when I'm alone So now I'm walking on a tightrope wire Too far off the ground I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth Yes I'm walking on a tightrope wire So afraid to fall And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure it doesn't matter at all The things I gave away They're not coming back for me Should've learned from my mistakes but I never do As I lay here all alone I hang up before I call And admit to all my faults to pa** the time So now I'm walking on a tightrope wire Too far off the ground I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth
Yes I'm walking on a tightrope wire So afraid to fall And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure it doesn't matter at all There's a place we used to go Today I went alone If there's a message in this song Well I don't know So now I'm walking on a tightrope wire Too far off the ground I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth Yes I'm walking on a tightrope wire So afraid to fall And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure So now I'm walking on a tightrope wire Too far off the ground I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth Yes I'm walking on a tightrope wire So afraid to fall And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure it doesn't matter at all
