Tightrope

I posted this video in a previous entry, but it needs to be posted again. I was in the audience when Tim performed this song & I thought it was so amazing then & even more now. I swear Tim's lyrics come from my heart/what I feel.



You're on a tightrope
Honey I'm on a tightrope too
Theres a balance we can strike
From trembling morning
To stumbling night
If you ever happen to falter
I'll be right behind you
Cause i'm on a tightrope too

You're under the guillotine
Oh honey, I'm under that guillotine too
It's been hanging over our heads
Which way are we going?
Where have we been?
You had your bad relationships
You can't make them bad again
But I'm sticking my neck out for you
Yeah, I'm under that guillotine too

You're treading on thin ice
Oh honey, I'm treading on thin ice too
We tiptoe round the halls
In conversation we don't dare to go
We could slide our way into home
If only our feet wouldn't keep getting cold
I'd patch up those holes for you
I'm treading on thin ice too

You're getting older
Oh honey, i'm getting older too
I ain't talking about no landslide
No tightropes
No guillotine
No thin ice
This worlds got me just as scared and confused as you
But at least I could be by your side
Cause I'm getting older too
I'm getting older too
But I could get older with you
