Tightrope - Misty Edwards

Verse 1

Can’t pretend that I am blind

Can’t go back and erase the mind

Naivety and wide-eyed wonder are far from me

But at least now I see

It’s like I’m walking on a tightrope

Stretched across the universe

Way too high to go back from where I came

Overwhelmed at the miles I’ve yet to tame

Chorus

I’m too far in to turn around now

And I’ve got too far to go to sit down now

Too far in, too far to go

Verse 2

Surrounded by blackness mingled with stars

Keeping a sacred balance hoping I don’t fall

Don’t want to fall, don’t want to walk

Want to disappear like cowards talk

No, no, no, no, no

Verse 3

Hanging there in space my toes gripping the rope

It’s the only hope

That golden thread that got me here

Will be the same

That brings me to the end

Bridge

I know, I know You’re with me

You surround me, You surround me

Your invisible hand is around, around

In this uncomfortable in-between

Where I’m too far in to turn around now
