Everybody loves a winner
Until they win too big
Then everybody is ready to bury
They just get out their shovels and dig
I was lonely
Man, I was lonely
I’d pretend I liked it that way
But, I was only a big phony
Till you looked my way
[Chorus:]
I’m the man up on the high wire
Dancin’ blindfolded just above the fire
Ain’t nobody gonna take me down
Cause I am high above this town
I’m flying, a silhouette against the night
Flying, gonna disappear into the night
Into the night, into the night
Got a feeling
A good feeling
Got it all the time
It’s like a little bit of Heaven that I’m stealing
When you’re on my mind
[Repeat Chorus:]
People tell me, “In life
You gotta roll the dice sometimes”
I tell ‘em, “Rollin the dice, well, that’s a way of life
At least it’s always been mine”
[Repeat Chorus:]
