Can you feel my heartbeat 
Beating like a drum 
Trying to touch your cold heart 
Beating up the right song 
Moving with the back beat 
Hanging 'round your door 
Play your little love game 
But baby I want more 

Love on a wire lifting me up 
Love on a wire don't look down 
Love on a wire trying to keep your 
Feet off the ground 

It's not so easy 
Walking on a tightrope 
With no safety net 
Living on high hope 
Waitin' on your call 
Headin' for a fall 
You got me hangin' on 
Baby don't get me wrong 

Cos every once in a while I feel 
Your love can take me higher 
Every once in a while I see desire 

Love on a wire lifting me up 
Love on a wire don't look down 
Love on a wire trying to keep your 
Feet off the ground 

Baby don't get me wrong 
Cos every once in a while I feel 
Your cold heart getting warmer 
And every once in a while I feel 
Your fire 

Love on a wire lifting me up 
Love on a wire don't look down 
Love on a wire trying to keep your 
Feet off the ground
