[Verse 1]

I'm on the tightrope, you've got your reasons

When did it get so hard to breathe?

Hide in the spotlight, I'm feelin' so tired

Your hands are burnt from holdin' me

And maybe you and I will fall in time

Eventually

Maybe we'll both die tryin'

But I can't bring myself to leave

'Cause I've looked

[Chorus]

And I ain't seen nothin' like you

The way you light up every room tonight

So easily

And I have moved mountains, babe

Just to stumble into your good grace

And I, I still can't compete

[Verse 2]

You're on the tightrope, I've got my reasons

How did we get so tangled?

You turn, I stay straight, I bend as you break

We're so messed up, but I know

That you and I will fall in time, eventually

Or maybe we'll both die tryin'

[Chorus]

'Cause I ain't seen nothin' like you

The way you light up every room tonight

So easily

And I have moved mountains, babe

Just to stumble into your good grace

And I, I still can't compete

[Bridge]

Oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, you and I will fall in time, eventually

Or maybe we'll both die tryin'

[Chorus]

'Cause I ain't seen nothin' like you

The way you light up every room tonight

So easily

And I have moved mountains, babe

Just to stumble into your good grace

And I, I still can't compete
