Boy & Bear - Walk the Wire lyrics

Artist: Boy & Bear

album: Limit of Love


It was the strangest night
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 breaking of desire
You inevitably hold on, because you always do
You gotta walk that wire
Oh, I'm talkin' 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 fading light
May be the moment to make my move
You hold your breath so tight
'Cause we're tumbling
And I said "Hey baby, hold my hand out on the wire"
I've been telling you the whole time, it's just a breaking of desire
Now I promise to be brave too, because you've earned that right
Gotta walk that wire
There's something in the air, right?
Keep you steady as you walk away
And we're never gonna know, right?
But it's better than the other way
And I said, "Hey baby, hold my hand out on the wire"
See, I never would have held on, without the aching of desire
Know there's heaven in a folk song, so just you hold on, because you're dancing on the wire
Mm, alright...
