Album: Straight On Till Morning
Don't you give up, don't allow disaster
Don't you give up, don't you let her win
We're talking about a "forever after"
Don't you give up, don't you dare give in (x2)
Chorus:Doesn't it seem most precarious
Doesn't it seem such a chance to take
Doesn't it seem most precarious
Why does it feel like a big mistake?
Please understand and hear what I'm saying
The time is now and you don't have long
She could be oceans away tomorrow
So soon your chance will have come and gone (x2)
(chorus)
The tight-wires strung and you're out in the middle
All eyes upon you, no net below
Inches to go and you're almost home free
Feel the wires swaying at to and fro (x2)
Doesn't it seem most precarious
Doesn't it seem such a chance to take
Doesn't it seem most precarious
Why does it feel like it would be a damn shame
Would be forever if I meant a day
How stoically I exclaim
As she turns from me and walks away
The light in her eyes explanation escapes you
Longing to please and not feel alone
And she doesn't know it but really she loves you
Some day so soon you're gonna make it home (x2)
(chorus x2)
