Tightrope Lyrics Novels & Stories

Oh Guess there is something, and there is nothing There is nothing in between And in my eyes, there is a tiny dancer Watching over me, he's singing "She's a, she's a lady, and I am just a boy" He's singing, "She's a, she's a lady, and I am just a line without a hook" Baby, I am a wreck when I'm without you I need you here to stay I broke all my bones that day I found you Crying at the lake

Finally, he stopped and looked down at her face—flushed, frustrated, desperate—and laughed softly. She felt a flash of anger and tried to push him off. "You're torturing me," she said breathlessly. "Calm down, tiger," he said, amusement in his voice as he held her in place. Then his hand moved lower, and the teasing shifted to something more direct. She felt him positioning himself, and her entire body tensed in anticipation. "You're so wet," he said, his voice rough with desire. She pushed her hips forward, silently begging, but he took his time, drawing out the moment until she thought she might actually cry from frustration.

Admiring you from a distance Scared to go and make a move Didn't wanna be distracting You be all up in your groove It's strange for me to wanna love someone who's raw all by themselves I'd hate for you to search for someone else 'Cause I don't want you thinking that my love's in vain Baby I've been falling for you but falling up on out your way 'Cause I can't let you lose yourself Looking for me And I can't let you make me your Your everything I just wanna be an escape I just wanna be an escape Baby can we escape, escape, escape? Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, aye, aye 'Cause I've been staying low, holding back Fighting the feelings that you've been giving And I've been trying to put it all

A little sympathy, I hope you can show me If you're leavin', baby, let me down slowly Cold skin, drag my feet on the tile As I'm walking down the corridor And I know we haven't talked in a while So I'm looking for an open door Don't cut me down, throw me out, leave me here to waste I once was a man with dignity and grace Now I'm slippin' through the cracks of your cold embrace So please, please Could you find a way to let me down slowly? A little sympathy, I hope you can show me If you wanna go then I'll be so lonely If you're leavin', baby, let me down slowly Let me down, down, let me down, down, let me down If you wanna go then I'll be so lonely If you're leavin', baby, let me down slowly

Boy Mercury shooting through every degree Oh girl dancing down those dirty and dusty trails Take it hip to hip, rocket through the wilderness Around the world the trip begins with a kiss “Oh, the best part -” as he walked to the beat. Roam if you want to Roam around the world Roam if you want to Without wings, without wheels The lyrics went over and over in his head, so apt to what he was doing that moment.

“Kickin’ your can all over the place…” Brooke laughs, reaching out and pushing at my chest playfully. Fuck, that smile, that laugh, the rain… I’m so fucking attracted to her in this moment- I just want to grab her, hold her, kiss her within an inch of her life… “We will, we will rock you!” she sings, turning back to the path and taking a cautious step. I echo the song, chanting the line back to her as I start to follow her down the trail again. The rain’s starting to let up, but the ground’s still slick as hell. I’m so busy watching her to make sure she doesn’t fall again that my own damn feet keep sliding around in the mud.

So let's roll the dice, one more time Take a chance on love again tonight Risk it all, lay it on the line Let the skeletons fight for life Tonight, hold on tight, as we collide The male singer stepped back and let his female counterpart, now take the lead. She belted the words out smoothly, in a soft but throaty voice. Reconnected, feelin' no pain Seeking shelter like a spark in the rain, tonight Worn and weathered, scared to go home We're here together, but still all alone, tonight And there's no need to lie, we've both been abused The love and the pain, the cocaine and booze, now

I hum along to the music and then when it gets to the chorus line I begin to sing along. (Chorus) And I wanna hold you in my arms I wanna let you break my heart I wanna feel the way it feels to make you stay And I know you'll bring me to my knees I know you're way out of my league I know I can't afford the price I'm gonna pay But I want you anyway Rogue steals a glance at me before looking away to the road and I continue. It's so self-betrayal of me I'm about to say all the things

If the sky, that we look upon, should tumble and fall Or the mountains, should crumble, to the sea I won't cry, I won't cry, no-no-no I won't shed a tear Just as long, as you stand, by me And darlin', darlin' stand, by me Oh-oh-oh, stand, by me Oh darling, stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

And every time that I try I get tongue tied I need a little good luck to get me by I need a little more help than a little bit Like the perfect one word no one's heard yet Cuz every time that I try I get tongue tied I need a little good luck to get me by this time I know it feels like the end Don't want to be here again And we could help each other off the ground so we never fall down again What it takes I don't care We're gonna make it I swear And we could help each other off the ground so we never fall down again Again I need a little more luck than a little bit Cuz every time I get stuck the words won't fit But every time that I try I get tongue tied I need a little good luck to get me by
