Tightrope

Sometimes words are too much
Sometimes not enough
The tip of the tongue is a knife
Are the scars forgiven?

Only love will tell
All I can do from here is wish you well
But only love will tell

I'm on a tightrope
Slow and steady
I think I'm ready, I think I'm ready
There's no turning time
The clock is 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
I think I'm ready

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

Only love will tell
All I can do from here is wish you well
But only love will tell

I'm on a tightrope
Slow and steady
I think I'm ready, I think I'm ready
There's no turning time
The clock is talking back, 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
I think I'm ready

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

Let's make the most of this moment
We're all here for a reason
