Flying Trapeze

Days are longer when we’re apart

Nights get longer before dawn

When all I see empty streets

Their reflection’s here inside me

The whiskey burns a path through my brain

All my instincts come back again

I feel like I’m talking in a different tongue

Everyone’s so strange and seems so young

And all and all I thought that I’d had

Held myself together well enough

Well I trust you like I have to, like a flyin’ trapeze

The timing’s horrible baby, the fall it’s a breeze.

You may lose your head, the crowd may leave you hangin’ on.

Oh the sight of a swan dive

Like a leaf from a tree

Gravity’s guaranteed

Well I trust you like I have to, like a flyin’ trapeze

The timing’s horrible baby, the fall it’s a breeze.

You may lose your head, the crowd may leave you hangin’ on.
