This is the story on how we lived

This is the story on how we lived
 The glory of what we did
 It started when we were kids
 With music up in our heads
 She said

 I've been out on the edge
 Breathin' a little bit of fresh air
 Big dreams, I took a chance
 Held out for everything I've got here

 I've been feeling this life's a circus
 Hanging on without a fear

 Livin' on a high wire
 Runnin' through a wildfire
 You can't shake me, I'm not going nowhere
 Walking on a tight road
 No net, high hopes
 Step back, I'm gonna make it over

 Na na na-na-na na na
 Livin' on a high wire
 Na na na-na-na na na
 Livin' on a high wire

 This is the story on how we lived
 The glory of what we did
 It started when we were kids
 With music up in our heads
 She said

 Big top, turning around, no clowns
 I'm running as I hit the ground
 Front row, big show is sold out
 So I'm ready for the crowd roar, let's go

 I've been feeling this life's a circus
 Hanging on without a fear

 Livin' on a high wire
 Runnin' through a wildfire
 You can't shake me, I'm not going nowhere
 Walking on a tight road
 No net, high hopes
 Step back, I'm gonna make it over

 Na na na-na-na na na
 Livin' on a high wire
 Na na na-na-na na na
 Livin' on a high wire

 When it comes to the beat
 Seeing that the heads are moving
 Move off your seat
 Achievement is what we're really doing
 Freedom of speech
 I'm in it just to win it
 I'm springin' and I can see it
 In the end that you can be it
 'Cause it's patience, it's statements
 Famous greatness
 Movin' 'til you make it through
 And maybe you can make it too

 Livin' on a high wire
 You can't shake me, I'm not going nowhere
 Walking on a tight road
 No net, high hopes
 Step back, I'm gonna make it over

 Na na na-na-na na na
 Livin' on a high wire
 Na na na-na-na na na
 Livin' on a high wire
 On top, baby
 We're looking down now
 Livin' on a high wire
