Who would have thought that I’d be here by myself? Who would have thought that you’d be bad for my health? Now I know now I know I’m just a man on a wire oh Who would have thought I’d be the cause and effect? Yesterday’s love is not tomorrow’s regrets Now I know now I know I’m just a man on a wire Pre-Chorus No I can’t look down I’m trying to fight the feeling I will fall to the ground If I even see you ’Cos I Feel like I’m walkin’ a tightrope My heart is in my throat I’m counting on high hopes to get me over you And I’ve got my eyes closed As long as the wind blows I’m counting on high hopes to get me over you you Cause I’m a man on a wire on a wire I’m a man on a wire on a wire Who would have thought I’d see you with someone else? Who would have thought that I’d be in such a mess? Now you know now you know I’m just a man on a wire Pre-Chorus When I walk that line I’ll try to keep my senses Make it to the other side I know the consequences and I Feel like I’m walkin’ a tightrope My heart is in my throat I’m counting on high hopes to get me over you And I’ve got my eyes closed As long as the wind blows I’m counting on high hopes to get me over you you Cause I’m a man on a wire on a wire I’m a man on a wire on a wire Feel like I’m walkin’ a tightrope My heart is in my throat I’m counting on high hopes to get me over you And I’ve got my eyes closed As long as the wind blows I’m counting on high hope to get me over you you Cause I’m a man on a wireon a wire I’m a man on a wire on a wire Cause I’m a man on a wireon a wire Cause I’m a man on a wire on a wire Bridge: The higher I get The more I miss the ground No safetiness Now you’re not around I have to keep walking To keep me from falling down Feel like I’m walkin’ a tightrope My heart is in my throat I’m counting on high hopes to get me over you And I’ve got my eyes closed As long as the wind blows I’m counting on high hopes to get me over you you Cause I’m a man on a wire on a wire I’m a man on a wire on a wire

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque les luttes émotionnelles d'une personne qui se sent vulnérable, comme un acrobate marchant sur un fil. Il réalise que certains choix, notamment en amour, peuvent être dangereux pour son bien-être. L'artiste exprime le sens de la perte et le fait de devoir avancer malgré la douleur, tout en cherchant désespérément à ne pas tomber. L'idée de vivre avec espoir, même dans l'incertitude, est centrale dans ses paroles. On peut comprendre ce morceau comme une réflexion sur les relations humaines et les défis que l'on doit surmonter lorsqu'on fait face à des sentiments compliqués. La lutte entre la volonté de se relever et la crainte de perdre l'équilibre se dessine clairement, rendant cette chanson particulièrement poignante dans le contexte des relations qui évoluent ou se brisent.
