Boy and Bear - Walk the Wire lyrics

It was the strangest thing The kind of scene I don't fit into I didn't feel so right But she came back 'round Drifting across my sight Some apparition of make believe I felt my chest grow tight And I tumbled in And She said "Hey baby, hold my hand out on the wire" Oh, I'm telling you the whole thing is just a braking of desire You inevitably hold on Because you always do You better walk that wire I'm talking tons 'cause I'm not made of steel Somebody save me from myself I'm just a man alright and I'm fumbling With all this faded advice Maybe the moment to make my move You hold your breath so tight 'Cause we're tumbling And She said "Hey baby, hold my hand out on the wire" I've been telling the whole time It's just a breaking of desire Now I promise you'll be brave too 'Cause you've earned that right You better walk that wire There's something in the air tonight Be steady as you walk away And we're never going to know, right? It's better then the other way She said "Hey baby, hold my hand out on the wire" See, I never would have held on But at the aching of desire No there's heaven in a folk song So just hold on 'Cause you're dancing on the wire Alright
