There's a tight rope swinging From the past, high in the trees Where the hell it's leading is obscured by all the leaves With just blind steps forward Swaying with the breeze If I fall who will catch me? All the tight rope dancers I imagine in my dreams How they take bold chances With a grace that you've never seen I'm so unsteady How can I believe That I'm strong And I'm ready? The walk is tough The rope is rough But if it carries them It'll carry us All the fallen leaves Help to count the cost I will walk if you walk with me Not yet half way over And the weather's scaring me Well, the storm clouds gather And it's getting hard to see But I think I hear you Stepping close to me And that's all I ever need The walk is long But the rope feels strong If we just stay close It'll lead us home But baby, don't let go 'Cause I can't walk alone If I fall, will you fall with me? I will walk if you walk with me
