I can´t be everything that you want me to
Fill my mind up with silly dreams is all I seem to do
And people look like they´re specks of dust when you´re this high off the ground

I´ll do my best not to let you down
So feet don´t fail me now cause

I am walking the tightrope
I am walking it for you
I am living on high hopes
Now they´re, now they´re crashing through
So I hold my breath
And close my eyes
I grab my heart when I realize
I am walking the tightrope for you

I´m fighting with gravity
Trying not to fall
But how come the ones we love can make us feel so small?
Oh, people look like they´re specks of dust when you´re this high off the ground

But everyone´s got a line to walk
We got to keep from looking down, no

I am walking the tightrope
I am walking it for you
I am living on high hopes
Now they´re, now they´re crashing through
So I hold my breath
And close my eyes
I grab my heart when I realize
I am walking the tightrope for you

Oh, the higher we go, the farther we fall
To hearts on the line and the winner takes all
But nobody wins when it´s all just a show
I´m losing my grip, gonna slip, now it´s time to let go

I am walking the tightrope
I am walking it for you
I am living on high hopes
Now they´re, now they´re crashing through
So I hold my breath
And close my eyes
I grab my heart when I realize
I am walking the tightrope for you, for you, for you, oh
I´m walking the tightrope, oh
I´m walking the tightrope

I am walking the tightrope for you
