Tightrope Lyrics by VERIDIA

Summer Sessions, vol. 1

2015

[Verse 1]
Sometimes words are too much
Sometimes not enough
The tip of the tongue is a knife
But are the scars forgiven?

[Pre-Chorus]
Only love will tell
All I can do from here is wish you well
But only love will tell

[Chorus]
I'm on a tightrope, slow and steady
I think I'm ready, I think I'm ready
And there's no turning time
The clock is talking back
It's talking back
Tick-tocking back
Reaching for that safe place
Letting go of every day's end
I'm on a tightrope, slow and steady
Oh, I think I'm ready

[Verse 2]
If we cross each other's paths
I want to hold you close
I won't forget the memories
I hope you'll let me

[Pre-Chorus]
Only love will tell
All I can do from here is wish you well
But only love will tell

[Chorus]
I'm on a tightrope, slow and steady
I think I'm ready, I think I'm ready
And there's no turning time
The clock is talking back
It's talking back
Tick-tocking back
Reaching for that safe place
Letting go of every day's end
I'm on a tightrope, slow and steady
Oh, I think I'm ready

[Bridge]
I don't want to waste another minute
I don't want to face tomorrow without you in it
Oh, woah, oh
We're all here for a reason
This is life, but just for a season
We're all here for a reason

[Outro]
Let's make the most of this moment
We're all here for a reason
Woah, oh, oh
We're all here for a reason
