I woke up before the sun
|
Chased your ghost across the yard
|
Through the fog and tumbling dark 'til you were gone
|
Virginia, I can hardly breathe
|
I've forgotten how to sleep
|
And your face still haunts my dreams when I'm alone
|
|
So now I'm walking on a tightrope wire
|
Too far off the ground
|
I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth
|
Yes, I'm walking on a tightrope wire
|
So afraid to fall
|
And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure it doesn't matter at all
|
|
The things I gave away
|
They're not coming back for me
|
Should've learned from my mistakes but I never do
|
As I lay here all alone
|
I hang up before I call
|
And admit to all my faults to pass the time
|
|
So now I'm walking on a tightrope wire
|
Too far off the ground
|
I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth
|
Yes, I'm walking on a tightrope wire
|
So afraid to fall
|
And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure it doesn't matter at all
|
|
There's a place we used to go
|
Today I went alone
|
If there's a message in this song
|
Well I don't know
|
|
So now I'm walking on a tightrope wire
|
Too far off the ground
|
I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth
|
Yes, I'm walking on a tightrope wire
|
So afraid to fall
|
And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure
|
|
Yes, I'm walking on a tightrope wire
|
Too far off the ground
|
I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth
|
Yes, I'm walking on a tightrope wire
|
So afraid to fall
|
And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure
|
And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure it doesn't matter at all
|
It doesn't matter at all
|
