Songtexte Tightrope - Movements

I've been staring at the world from a tightrope
Worried sick but I'm hanging on to high hopes
And I'm swinging hard, always hoping that I strike gold
But you walk by and it's like you've got your eyes closed

And I don't mean to intrude
But I'm dying to reach you

So can I try to be somebody you could love?
I don't know if I could ever measure up
And you took my breath like water in my lungs
But I would die to be somebody you could love

Oh

I never know just what to say, so I keep shut
It's like I'm always too afraid I'm gonna freeze up
And if I try too hard, then it's too much
But if I don't start soon, I'm gonna lose touch
It's just the way you give me too much to choose from

And I don't mean to intrude
But I'm dying to reach you

So can I try to be somebody you could love?
I don't know if I could ever measure up
But you took my breath like water in my lungs
And I would die to be somebody you could love

Oh
Oh

Don't remind me I could never be enough
Stay beside me 'cause I only want your love
Don't remind me I could never be enough
Stay beside me 'cause I only want your love

I've been staring at the world from a tightrope
Worried sick but I'm hanging on to high hopes

So can I try to be somebody you could love?
I don't know if I could ever measure up
But you took my breath like water in my lungs
And I would die to be somebody you could love

Oh
Oh

Yeah, you took my breath like water in my lungs
And I would die to be somebody you could love
