Music & Lyrics: John Popper



Don't give up, don't allow disaster

Don't give up, don't you let her win

Talking about a forever after

Don't give up, don't you dare give in

Don't give up, don't you dare give in



Please understand and hear what I'm saying

The time is now, and you don't have long

She could be oceans away tomorrow

Soon your chance will have come and gone

So soon your chance will have come and gone



The tightwire's 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 wire swaying to and fro

Feel the wire swaying to and fro



The light in her eyes explanation escapes you

Longing to please and not feel alone

She doesn't know it, but really she loves you

Someday soon you will make it home

Someday so soon you will make it home

Someday so soon you will make it home

Someday so soon we'll all make it home
