lyrics

They're dancing on the table
party games on their phones
I'm feeling kinda anxious
walking in alone
Shoes piled by the front door
jackets on the bed
and you surrounded by a group of girls
hanging on what you've said

And I've never felt more drawn in
More dazzled by the view
And I keep getting higher
As I make my way to you

I feel like I'm walking on a tightrope
carrying all of these high hopes

I promised you I'd show up
well guess what? here I am
I'd tell you I can't stay late
but time melts in your hands

And you crown my words with laughter
Kiss me on the cheek
I wonder will you catch me
if I get knocked off my feet

I feel like I'm walking on a tightrope
carrying all of these high hopes
I feel like I'm walking on a tightrope
carrying all of these high hopes

It's a very thin line
you know it's true
a very thin line
I walk for you

I feel like I'm....
carrying all of these....
I feel like I'm walking a fine line between
Just for now and all mine
I feel like I'm walking on a tightrope
carrying all of these high hopes
I feel like I'm walking a fine line between
Just for now and all mine
