Who would have thought that I'd be here by myself?
who would have thought that you'd be bad for my health?
Now I know,now I know
I'm just a man on a wire, oh

Who would have thought about the cause and effect?
Yesterday's love is now tomorrow's regret
Now I know,now I know
I'm just a man on a wire, oh...

No,I can't look down
I'm trying to fight the feeling
I will fall to the ground
If I ever see you cause, I.....

Feel like I'm walkin' a tight rope 
My heart is in my throat
And I'm counting on high hopes to get me over you
And I've got my eyes closed
As long as the wind blows
I'm counting on high hopes to get me over you,you
Cause I'm a man on a wire,on a wire
I'm a man on a wire, on a wire

Who would have thought I'd see you with someone else?
Who would have thought that I'd be in such a mess?
Now you know,now you know
I'm just a man on  a wire, oh...

But I'll walk that line
I'll try to keep my senses
Make it to the oher side
I know the consequences and, I....
 
Feel like I'm walkin' a tight rope
My heart is in my throat
I'm counting on high hopes to get me over you
And I've got my eyes closed
As long as the wind blows
I'm counting on high hopes to get me over you,you
Cause I'm a man on a wire,on a wire
I'm a man on a wire, on a wire
Cause I'm a man on a wire,on a wire
Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wire

Oh
The higher it gets, oh 
The more I miss the ground
No safety nets, oh
Now you're not around
I have to keep walking
To keep me from falling down

Yeah
Feels like I'm walkin' a tight rope
My heart is in my throat
I'm counting on high hopes to get me over you
And I've got my eyes closed
As long as the wind blows
I'm counting on high hopes to get me over you,you
Cause I'm a man on a wire,on a wire
I'm a man on a wire, on a wire
I'm a man on a wire,on a wire
I'm a man on a wire, on a wire

yeah..
