Walking the Wire Lyrics
Do you feel the same when I'm away from you?
Oh oh
Do you know the line that I'd walk for you?
Oh oh
We could turn around and we could give it up
But we'll take what comes
Take what comes
Oh the storm is raging against us now
Oh oh
If you're afraid of falling, then don't look down
Oh oh
But we took the step, oh we took the leap
And we'll take what comes
Take what comes
Feel the wind in your hair
Feel the rush way up here
We're walking the wire
Love
We're walking the wire
Love
We couldn't be higher
Oh
We're walking the wire, wire, wire
There's nights we had to just walk away
Oh oh
And there's tears we cry, but those tears will fade
Oh oh
It's a price to pay when it comes to love
And we'll take what comes
Take what comes
Feel the wind in your hair
Feel the rush way up here
We're walking the wire
Love
We're walking the wire
Love
We couldn't be higher
Oh
We're walking the wire, wire, wire
So look out down below
Look out down below
Look out down below
Walking the wire, wire, wire
So look out down below
Well I'll take it hey, where the thunder roars
And I'll hold you close, I'll stay the course
I promise you from up above
That we'll take what comes
Take what comes
Love
We're walking the wire
Love
We're walking the wire
Love
We couldn't be higher
Oh
We're walking the wire, wire, wire
So look out down below
Look out down below
Look out down below
Walking the wire, wire, wire
So look out down below
We're walking the wi-
We're walking the wi-
We're walking the wire, wire, wire
Oh oh
Do you know the line that I'd walk for you?
Oh oh
We could turn around and we could give it up
But we'll take what comes
Take what comes
Oh oh
If you're afraid of falling, then don't look down
Oh oh
But we took the step, oh we took the leap
And we'll take what comes
Take what comes
Feel the rush way up here
Love
We're walking the wire
Love
We couldn't be higher
Oh
We're walking the wire, wire, wire
Oh oh
And there's tears we cry, but those tears will fade
Oh oh
It's a price to pay when it comes to love
And we'll take what comes
Take what comes
Feel the rush way up here
Love
We're walking the wire
Love
We couldn't be higher
Oh
We're walking the wire, wire, wire
Look out down below
Look out down below
Walking the wire, wire, wire
So look out down below
And I'll hold you close, I'll stay the course
I promise you from up above
That we'll take what comes
Take what comes
Love
Love
We're walking the wire
Love
We couldn't be higher
Oh
We're walking the wire, wire, wire
Look out down below
Look out down below
Walking the wire, wire, wire
So look out down below
We're walking the wi-
We're walking the wire, wire, wire

As someone being in a long-term relationship with children...
This one is definitely about taking the risks of a relationship (hence "walking the wire"), because every true relationship is based on really fragile things like trust, passion and yes, friendship (these things being the wire). These emotions can get you "high" (feel the wind in your hair), but cost you some (tears, nights you just walk away). The song is also about complete devotion to each other (we took the step, and we took the leap, and we'll take what comes"). Sometimes, there are moments where you are afraid of where the relationship might be heading or of losing your loved one ("if you're afraid of falling then don't look down"). Also, in times of insecurity being there for one another ("I'll take your hand when thunder roars, and I'll hold you close, I'll stay the course").
For me, this song is about a relationship with true love and for me, these lyrics are clear as can be. Just beautiful. Wishing everybody here a relationship as described by the Dragons.
Love this song
I think this song is expressing the intensity of love. When people don't hold back and fall hard for one another. Theres anxieties of falling from grace or not surviving the anything but bliss state. The wire and storm with looking out below symbolizing the risks taken and the endurance needed to allow a intense relationship of love transition from passion to companionship.
I don't tend to like love songs. But this is the most inspiring love song I think I've heard in a long time. It makes it all seem ok and worth it. Great job Dan...and Aja.
Love this song. I feel like he got rejected then he didn't let it get him down. He's gonna try harder this time saying look out world here I come. Inspiring Dan.
