Leon Russell Tight Rope Lyrics

I'm up on the tightwire,
one sides ice and one is fire
It's a circus game with you and me.
I'm up on the tightrope,
one side's hate and one is hope
But the tophat on my head is all you see.

And the wire seems to be the only place for me
A comedy of errors and I'm falling
Like a rubber neck giraffe, you look into my past
Well, baby you're just to blind to see.

I'm up in the spotlight, oh does it feel right
Well the altitude seems to get to me.
I'm up on the tightwire
linked by life and the funeral pyre
Putting on a show for you to see.

Like a rubber neck giraffe, you look into my past
Well, baby you're just to blind to see.
I'm up in the spotlight, oh does it feel right
Well the altitude really gets to me.

I'm up on the tightwire
linked by life and the funeral pyre
Putting on a show for you to see.
