Tightrope - Misty Edwards Lyrics

Can’t pretend that I am blind
Can’t go back and erase the mind
Naivety and wide-eyed wonder are far from me
But at least now I see
It’s like I’m walking on a tightrope
Stretched across the universe
Way too high to go back from where I came
Overwhelmed at the miles I’ve yet to tame
I’m too far in to turn around now
And I’ve got too far to go to sit down now
Too far in, too far to go
Surrounded by blackness mingled with stars
Keeping a sacred balance hoping I don’t fall
Don’t want to fall, don’t want to walk
Want to disappear like cowards talk
No, no, no, no, no
Hanging there in space my toes gripping the rope
It’s the only hope
That golden thread that got me here
Will be the same
That brings me to the end
I know, I know you’re with me
You surround me, you surround me
Your invisible hand is around, around
In this uncomfortable in-between
Where I’m too far in to turn around now
