Tightrope

They say some days you're gonna win

They say some days you're gonna lose

I tell you I got news for you

Your losin' all the time you never win

If you believe that's how it's gonna be I'd better put you down

Get off your tightrope up there come down on

The ground you gotta save me now

You better turn around

When I looked around I was heading down

Won't somebody throw me down a line

They say some days you gotta give--

They say some days you gotta take--

If that's the way it's gotta be

Roll it over and you will see

The city streets are full of people going nowhere making time

The change from night to day is really only hours

It's just along the line can't you see the sign

When I looked around I was heading down

Won't somebody throw me down a line

I want to look you straight in the eye

I want to tell you how I really feel

I can feel the wheels turnin' round

Won't somebody throw me down a line

The city streets are full of people going nowhere making time

The change from night to day is really only hours

It's just along the line can't you see the sign

When I closed my eyes I was so surprised

Somebody had thrown me down the line--stopped me drownin'

Somebody had thrown me down the line

Somebody
