Tapdancing On A Highwire

C     G          F     C
Bright lights and funny clowns.
 F                    C        G
Hammin' it up on the circus grounds.
 C G    F    C
Horses, big parades.
        F                 C       G
Such a pretty sight this love we made.
     Dm           F             C
From way up here life's just a ball.
     Dm        C      F                G
With you by my side, love is worth the fall.

        C           G           F
So we're tap dancing on the highwire.
             C
We could go tumbling down.
C                      Dm
But something makes me want to go higher.
             F         Dm
Think it's having you around.
F          G      C    F       C
Oh, get a look at us playing with fire.
F             G              C
Oh, we're tapdancing on the highwire.

Big applause, from the crowd out here.
Watching our hearts hang in mid-air.
No strings and no fears.
Keeps our love suspended up here.

We know we could loose this balance and fall.
But a heart that don't dance ain't a real heart at all.

        C           G           F
So we're tap dancing on the highwire.
