Lyrics

On a bed of roses, the cat has got your tongue,
Trying to remember from where it is that we come from
Walking on a wire higher and higher,
Walking on a wire higher and higher

From a dessert shore on a gypsy train
Off in the distant I heard you call my name
Walking on a wire higher and higher

Walking on a wire, never let them see you fall
Walking on a wire, it didn’t hurt at all
Walking on a wire let’s hold on with all we got
Walking on a wire, promise we’ll never drop

Walking on a wire higher and higher

Way up high the gypsy queen
The city burns with gasoline
Don’t look up don’t look down
It’s a long ways to the ground
Walking on a wire higher and higher

Walking on a wire higher and higher

So be good to yourself and be good to your friends
Take a look around until it comes again
Walking on a wire higher and higher

Walking on a wire let’s hold on with all we got
Walking on a wire I swear we’ll never drop
Walking on a wire don’t let them ever see you fall
Walking on a wire it didn’t hurt at all
Walking on a wire promise we’ll never fall
