On The High Wire -

You up on the high wire
You’re so well balanced, so brave
You’re the one they all aspire to
You walk a perfect way

You up on the high wire
You’re so skilful, you’re so strong and
The way you gently walk that wire
I see nothing is wrong

But when you come down to earth I’ve seen you
I’ve seen you crying
Because he’s gone away, gone and left you
He’s left you all alone

You up on the high wire
All in sequins, you’re a picture
Everybody’s got their eye on you -
Holding their breath for you

But when you come down to earth I’ve seen you
I’ve seen you crying
Because he’s gone away, gone and left you
He’s left you all alone

Up every night, every night
My sweet child, you haven’t got a choice
But to come down, down, down

You up on the high wire
Your faith is a slight wire
Your face is a white fire
Don’t you ever think of him
