'Dancing on a Highwire"

 

Alan Parsons

We're living in a different reality, we're toeing the same line
We give in we call it neutrality, a joke with no punchline
The silver plated hero meets the golden hearted whore
The odds'll give you zero, she'll be leaving in a few days more

Movin' on forever

Maybe she don't care
Holding on together
Maybe it just ain't there

You're dancing on a high wire
You need to be so sure
There used to be a lifeline
There isn't anymore

 

We are the same with no similarity, talk at the same time
We believe in freedom and charity as long as I get mine
The ivory Madonna is walking through the door
You watch her from a window, it doesn't matter anymore

 

Movin' on forever
Maybe she don't care
Holding on together
Maybe it just ain't there

You're dancing on a high wire
You need to be so sure
There used to be a lifeline
There isn't anymore

 

Movin' on forever
Maybe she don't care
Holding on together
Maybe it just ain't there

You're dancing on a high wire
You need to be so sure

There used to be a lifeline
There isn't anymore

Dancing on a high wire
You need to be so sure
There used to be a lifeline
There isn't anymore
