There you walk out on the high wire
Bb F Bb
You're dancer on thin ice

You pay no heed to the danger

And you go dancing through the doorways

Just to see what you gonna find there

With the crazy balance of your mind

At the place where you came in

And mind over matter

To do what you do that you must

When the things that you hold

Can fall and be shattered

Or run through your fingers like dust
