When you can't be touched
When you're in ecstasy
On a tightrope, on a wire
When you're in ecstasy
I feel everything
One little foot in front of the other
When you cannot breathe
When you wouldn't dare
When you can't be touched
And when you despair
There's a fine line between love and hurting
And knowing just when to walk away
But you're not with me
I'll attempt to jump through your ring of fire
When you can't be touched
I feel everything
Like a prima ballerina
When you can't be loved
And when you despair
When you're furious
When you start to freeze
When you cannot breathe
I am waiting all the while
I will tiptoe, tiptoe around you constantly
Don't you know I'm afraid of thunder?
And when you despair
I feel everything
When you wouldn't dare
I feel everything
When you fall apart
When you're furious
When you start to freeze
Make my way up a spiral staircase
When you have no heart
I feel everything
Will it wash your tears or leak through the ceiling?
For a glimpse of something to bring us higher
When you're in ecstasy
I hear the water running
When you can't be touched
But you're not with me
When you cannot breathe
I feel everything
When you wouldn't dare
I feel everything
When you're furious
Hope to God you had a good day
I feel everything, oh
When you start to freeze
But you're not with me
