Derek Nelson - Tightrope Walker Lyrics

My lady steps like a tightrope walker
Sky above, ground below
If she knew which one was closer, then she'd go
To her own little time of the day
I'd like to think if I wasn't there
then she'd sleep that day away.

And now that its night
and we're feelin' quite alright
just swinging from these lights
sky above, ground below
if I knew which one was closer, then I'd go.

My lady sleeps with her legs tied in mine
once she's tangled up, I know she'll go
if I knew when that was coming, then I'd go
to that bed in my parents' house
that I slept in so long ago
and that's all I'm thinkin' now

And now that its night
and we're feelin' quite alright
just swinging from these lights
sky above, ground below
if I knew which one was closer, then I'd go
