Verse I:
Through the wire
Through the wire
Through the wire
I'm watching her dance
Dress is a catch in the light
don't last, don't last
There's no question
She's not in a disguise
Chorus:
There's no way out and a long way down
Everybody needs someone around
But I can't hold you, too close now
Through the wire, through the wire
What a feeling to be right here beside you now
Holding you in my arms
When the air ran out and we both started running wild
The sky fell down
But you've got stars when you rise
And I've got something
What a feeling to be a king beside you, somehow
I wish I could be there now
Verse II:
Through the wire, through the wire, through the wire
I'm watching this like imagining you're mine
It's too late, too late, am I too late?
Tell me now, am I running out of time?
There's no way out and a long way down
Everybody needs someone around
But I can't hold you, too close now
Through the wire, through the wire
Chorus:
What a feeling to be right here beside you now
Holding you in my arms
When the air ran out
And we both started running wild
The sky fell down
But you've got stars when you rise
And I've got something
What a feeling to be a king beside you, somehow
I wish I could be there now
Whatever chains are holding you back
Holding you back
Don't let 'em tie you down
Whatever chains are holding you back
Holding you back
Tell me you believe in that
