I see you there in your satin shirt
unfocussed eyes on the ceiling
fluorescent lips on a painted face
i think i know what you're feeling
This tightrope just begins to feel like home
when the wind comes rising from a desert storm
and all i know is that tonight i might let go the line...
Let go the line
Unwrap yourself for a starving man
come drown your thoughts if they bite you
turn off the world if it makes you hurt
i'm just a clown but i like you
i see you there in your satin shirt
unfocussed eyes on the ceiling
a trace of smile on a frozen face
i think i know what you're stealing
Life has been likened to a poker deal
or a poor brief candle or a karmic wheel
but all i know is that tonight i might let go the line...
Let go the line
(interlude)
Ooh...let go the line
