Lyrics
[Verse 1:] Some people long for a life that is simple and planned Tied with a ribbon Some people won't sail the sea 'cause they're safer on land To follow what's written But I'd follow you to the great unknown Off to a world we call our own

[Chorus:] Hand in my hand And we promised to never let go We're walking the tightrope High in the sky We can see the whole world down below We're walking the tightrope Never sure, never know how far we could fall But it's all an adventure That comes with a breathtaking view Walking the tightrope

[Post-Chorus:] With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh With you

[Verse 2:] Mountains and valleys, and all that will come in between Desert and ocean You pulled me in and together we're lost in a dream Always in motion So I risk it all just to be with you And I risk it all for this life we choose

[Chorus:] Hand in my hand And you promised to never let go We're walking the tightrope High in the sky We can see the whole world down below We're walking the tightrope Never sure, will you catch me if I should fall? Well, it's all an adventure That comes with a breathtaking view Walking the tightrope

[Post-Chorus:] With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh With you With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Outro:] With you, ooh-ooh-ooh With you
