Livin' On A High Wire Lyrics
The glory of what we did
It started when we were kids
With music up in our heads
She said:
Breathin' a little bit of fresh air
Big dreams, I took a chance
Held out for everything I got here
A circus, hanging on without a fear
Runnin' through a wildfire
You can't shake me, I'm not going nowhere
Walking on a tight rope
No net, high hopes
Step back, I'm gonna make it over
Na na, livin' on a high wire
Na na na-na-na na na
Na na, livin' on a high wire
The glory of what we did
It started when we were kids
With music up in our heads
She said:
No clowns, I'm running as I hit the ground
Front row, big show, is sold out
So I'm ready for the crowd roar, let's go
A circus, hanging on without a fear
Runnin' through a wildfire
You can't shake me, I'm not going nowhere
Walking on a tight rope
No net, high hopes
Step back, I'm gonna make it over
Na na, livin' on a high wire
Na na na-na-na na na
Na na, livin' on a high wire
Seein' that the heads are movin'
Move off your seat
Achievement's what we really doin'
Freedom of speech
I'm in it just to win it
I'm springin' and I can see it:
In the end that you can be it
Cuz it's patience, statements
Famous, greatness
Movin' till you make it through
And maybe you can make it too
You can't shake me, I'm not going nowhere
Walking on a tight rope
No net, high hopes
Step back, I'm gonna make it over
Na na, livin' on a high wire
Na na na-na-na na na (Top story, top story)
Na na, livin' on a high wire, yeah yeah
On top, baby
Na na na-na-na na na (We lookin', we lookin', we lookin' down now)
Na na, livin' on a high wire
There are a few corrections, this is what the lyrics should read:
Listen up
This the story on how we lived The glory of what we did It started when we were kids With music up in our heads She said:
I've been, out on the edge Breathin', a little bit of fresh air Big dreams, I took a chance Held out, for everything I got here
I've been, feeling, this life's A circus, hanging on without a fear
Livin' on a high wire Runnin' through a wildfire You can't shake me, I'm not going nowhere Walking on a tight rope No net, high hopes Step back, I'm gonna make it over
Na na na-na-na na na Na na, livin' on a high wire Na na na-na-na na na Na na, livin' on a high wire
This the story on how we lived The glory of what we did It started when we were kids With music up in our heads She said:
Big top, turning around No clowns, I'm running as I hit the ground Front row, big show, is sold out So I'm ready for the crowd roar, let's go
I've been, feeling, this life's A circus, hanging on without a fear
Livin' on a high wire Runnin' through a wildfire You can't shake me, I'm not going nowhere Walking on a tight rope No net, high hopes Step back, I'm gonna make it over
Na na na-na-na na na Na na, livin' on a high wire Na na na-na-na na na Na na, livin' on a high wire
When it comes to the beat Seein' that the heads are movin' Move off your seat Achievement's what we really doin' Freedom of speech I'm in it just to win it I'm springin' and I can see it: In the end that you can be it Cuz it's patience, statements Famous, greatness Movin' till you make it through And maybe you can make it too
Livin' on a high wire (Alright) You can't shake me, I'm not going nowhere Walking on a tight rope No net, high hopes Step back, I'm gonna make it over
Na na na-na-na na na (Yeah we living on a high wire) Na na, livin' on a high wire Na na na-na-na na na (Top story, top story) Na na, livin' on a high wire, yeah yeah On top, baby Na na na-na-na na na (We lookin', we lookin', we lookin' down now) Na na, livin' on a high wire
