Chased your ghost across the yard
Through the fog and tumbling dark 'til you were gone
Virginia
I can hardly breathe
I've forgotten how to sleep
And your face still haunts my dreams when I'm alone
So now I'm walking on a tightrope wire
Too far off the ground
I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth
Yes
I'm walking on a tightrope wire
So afraid to fall
And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure it doesn't matter at all
The things I gave away
They're not coming back for me
Should've learned from my mistakes but I never do
As I lay here all alone I hang up before I call
And admit to all my faults to pass the time
So now I'm walking on a tightrope wire
Too far off the ground
I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth
Yes
I'm walking on a tightrope wire
So afraid to fall
And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure it doesn't matter at all
There's a place we used to go
Today I went alone
If there's a message in this song
Well I don't know
So now I'm walking on a tightrope wire
Too far off the ground
I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth
Yes
I'm walking on a tightrope wire
So afraid to fall
And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure
So now I'm walking on a tightrope wire
Too far off the ground
I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth
Yes
I'm walking on a tightrope wire
So afraid to fall
And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure
And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure it doesn't matter at all
I woke up before the sun Chased your ghost across the yard Through the fog and tumbling dark 'til you were gone Virginia I can hardly breathe I've forgotten how to sleep And your face still haunts my dreams when I'm alone So now I'm walking on a tightrope wire Too far off the ground I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth Yes I'm walking on a tightrope wire So afraid to fall And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure it doesn't matter at all The things I gave away They're not coming back for me Should've learned from my mistakes but I never do As I lay here all alone I hang up before I call And admit to all my faults to pass the time So now I'm walking on a tightrope wire Too far off the ground I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth Yes I'm walking on a tightrope wire So afraid to fall And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure it doesn't matter at all There's a place we used to go Today I went alone If there's a message in this song Well I don't know So now I'm walking on a tightrope wire Too far off the ground I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth Yes I'm walking on a tightrope wire So afraid to fall And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure So now I'm walking on a tightrope wire Too far off the ground I'm imagining the words you said when last I saw your mouth Yes I'm walking on a tightrope wire So afraid to fall And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure And I'd tell you that I miss you but I'm sure it doesn't matter at all Explain Request ×
