lyrics

It was just one of those things you never see coming
one of those things you can’t even try running from
The kind that hits you right between the eyes
the best worst kind of surprise.

I am running, running, running through time
Slipping through the snags that held me
If I were another kind of person
They would not have been the ties that blind
Along this highwire

Like that ring that fell in sand while I was digging
Buried by my frantic ways while I was hoping for another something
The kind of thing that happens when everything seems fine
the best worst kind of surprise

I am flying, flying, flying through a dark sky
Falling on winds that held me
If I were another kind of bird
They might have been the winds of life
On the highwire

All those ancient charts I heeded while I drifted with the tide
Craving, cleaving , carving, clearing
If I’d stopped to listen, I’d have heard a different song
And I would have fallen headlong
Off of the highwire
