Jon Allen - Tightrope

TIGHTROPE I’ve been here all night waiting by the phone  Wishing and hoping maybe you’d call.  It would break my heart if you said we’re through  And all my tears like rain would surely fall.  I’m walking this tightrope  And I just can’t stand the pain  I’ll be walking this tightrope  Till the time I see you again.  So I’m praying,  Yes, I’m praying,  Come back to me.  I’ve been down so low since you went away,  Can’t find no bright side I can look on.  There’s no relief that comes with the break of day,  My heart just keeps on singing this same sad song.  I’m walking this tightrope  And I just can’t stand the pain  I’ll be walking this tightrope  Till the time I see you again.  So I’m praying,  Yes, I’m praying,  Come back to me.  I’ll do whatever it takes  Darling, you know I’m willing.  Having you here with me makes  My whole life worth living.  I don’t care right now who was right or wrong,  I don’t want to fight anymore.  I’d give anything just to hear your voice,  To see the sight of your face at my door.  I’m walking this tightrope  And I just can’t stand the pain  I’ll be walking this tightrope  Till the time I see you again.  So I’m praying,  Yes, I’m praying,  Come back to me. Oh, I’m praying,  Yes, I’m praying,  Come back to me...
