Johnny Altman - Tightrope

I've got a big house
It sits on a hill
I've got a big mouth
It's making me ill
I take giant steps
To get where you are
I get in a cold sweat
I'm stuck in your car

Don't try and change this thing
That you and I have found
Don't wanna see it broken
All shattered on the ground

I'm on a tightrope
A balancing act
I'm looking forward
There's no looking back

I get on the phone
It's late in the night
Your heart's like a stone
Hey, don't get uptight
Did I make the right sign
Or am I a fool?
Yeah you took the last line
Oh you're playing it cool

Don't try and change this thing
That you and I have found
Don't wanna see it broken
All shattered on the ground

I'm on a tightrope
A balancing act
I'm looking forward
There's no looking back

Please stop me from falling
Or I'll hit the net
That's why I'm calling
Don't want no regret
The walls of this mansion
All echo with you
So what's your intention
Hey I'm lonely too

Don't try and change this thing
That you and I have found
Don't wanna see it broken
All shattered on the ground

I'm on a tightrope
A balancing act
I'm looking forward
There's no looking back

I'm on a tightrope
A balancing act
I'm looking forward
There's no looking back

Tightrope (repeat)

No looking back babe (repeat)
