Tightrope
Dancing on the Edge of Love: Kelly Clarkson's Tightrope Revelations
Lyrics
I'm on the tightrope
I feel like I'm in a precarious situation or a difficult balancing act.
You've got your reasons
You have your own reasons for our current circumstances.
When did it get so hard to breathe?
When did it become so challenging for me to breathe, suggesting emotional difficulty or stress?
Hide in the spotlight, I'm feelin' so tired
I'm trying to stay in the public eye, but I'm exhausted.
Your hands are burnt from holdin' me
Your efforts to support me have taken a toll on you; you're hurting.
And maybe you and I will fall in time
Possibly, both of us will experience a downfall in our relationship over time.
Eventually
It's an inevitable outcome that might happen eventually.
Maybe we'll both die trying, but I can't bring
We might fail in our attempts, and it could lead to a tragic end, but I can't bring myself to leave.
Myself to leave
The emotional struggle of leaving is too difficult.
'Cause I've looked
I've searched for alternatives or solutions.
And I ain't seen nothin' like you
I haven't encountered anything or anyone like you before.
The way you light up every room tonight
Your presence illuminates every room effortlessly.
So easily
It happens so smoothly and naturally.
And I have moved mountains, babe
I've overcome significant challenges for the sake of our relationship.
Just to stumble and to long a grace and I
Despite my efforts, I still make mistakes and lack grace, and I can't measure up to you.
I still can't compete
I can't compete with your brilliance.
You're on the tightrope
You're also facing difficulties or challenges in our relationship.
I've got my reasons
I have my own reasons for the current state of affairs.
How did we get so tangled?
How did we end up in such a complicated situation?
You turn, I stay straight
You take a different path, and I try to stay on the right course.
I bend as you break
I'm flexible while you're breaking under pressure.
We're so messed up but I know
Our relationship is messed up, but I believe we will fall apart eventually.
That you and I will fall in time, eventually
Or perhaps, we might both face a tragic end in trying to salvage it.
Or maybe we'll both die trying
'Cause I ain't seen nothin' like you
I still haven't encountered anyone like you.
The way you light up every room tonight
Your ability to light up a room remains unmatched.
So easily
It happens effortlessly and naturally.
And I have moved mountains, babe
I've overcome significant challenges for the sake of our relationship.
Just to stumble and to long a grace and I
Despite my efforts, I still make mistakes and lack grace, and I can't measure up to you.
I still can't compete
I can't compete with your brilliance.
Oh, oh, hmm
Oh, oh, oh, hmm
-Oh you and I will fall in time eventually
We are likely to face challenges in our relationship over time.
Or maybe we'll both die trying
Or it's possible that our attempts to save it might lead to a tragic end.
'Cause I ain't seen nothin' like you
The way you light up every room tonight
I still haven't encountered anyone like you.
So easily
Your ability to light up a room remains unmatched.
And I have moved mountains, babe
It happens effortlessly and naturally.
Just to stumble and to long a grace and I
I've overcome significant challenges for the sake of our relationship.
I still can't compete
Despite my efforts, I still make mistakes and lack grace, and I can't measure up to you.
