lyrics

One more night hopping dives and you're not even downtown
Ending up on the curb of the street where your future runs
Ain’t no clothes you can wear that can hide you’re run down.
What’s the song you play all the time? We’ve come undone.

Take a good long look around,
Have your feet not touched the ground?
Don’t you know there’s nothing I can do?

Did I set your life on fire
Or are you just like a man on a wire,
Daring gravity to catch you?

You can roll like a stone but you can’t keep yourself turned on
There’s no fun in these games anymore when the music dies.
All these things that you do they just keep you from tumbling down
Must be hard to live so well, beneath a falling sky.

Take a good long look around,
Have your feet not touched the ground?
Don’t you know there’s nothing I can do?

Did I set your life on fire
Or are you just like a man on a wire,
Daring gravity to catch you?

Ten years long gone
I say this was love
But there's another place, another face that has come along
All these things I see, they make me scream for your name
Like another love has gone, has come on back
Well, oh hell, yeah

I said you
You come a little bit closer now
And I said I
I never needed you anyhow
But I say whoa
Take another little piece of me somehow
And I said baby, I needed you nohow

Take a good long look around,
Have your feet not touched the ground?
Don’t you know there’s nothing I can do?

Did I set your life on fire
Or are you just like a man on a wire,
Daring gravity to catch you?
