Nerina Pallot - Girl On A Wire lyrics

Girl on a wire, it's a balancing act My heart in my mouth again Nervously fumbling, secretly stumbling Looking for the right chord Eye on the prize, but blinded by fear The muscles and blood arrive Hissing of wings, hysterical flame Beckoning her on toward Because the win is everything and nothing now And all is life late like memories I'm losing my nerve again Am I losing my nerve again? Lost in the glare of the cruel white light The circus of one below So brittle and bold, ready to score Something beyond the end I want to know where the black-eyed goes Lost in himself alone Simple in words, eye on the prize Silently believing But the win is everything and nothing now And all my life late like memories The win is everything, it's everything I'm finding my nerve again I'm finding my nerve again Girl on a wire Girl on a wire
