Lyrics Ilse DeLange – Tap Dancing On The Highwire

Bright lights and funny clowns
Hammin’ it up to the circus grounds
Horses, big parade
Such a pretty sight, this love we made

So we’re tap dancing on the highwire
We could go tumbling down
But something makes me go higher
Think it’s having you around
Oh, get a look at us playing with fire
Oh, we’re tap dancing on the highwire

Big applause, from the crowd out there
Watching our hearts in mid-air
No strings and no fear
Keeps or love suspended up here
We know we could lose our balance and fall
But a heart that don’t dance
Ain’t a real heart at all

So we’re tap dancing on the highwire
We could go tumbling down
But something makes me go higher
Think it’s having you around
Oh, get a look at us playing with fire
Oh, we’re tap dancing on the highwire
