Through the wire, through the wire, through the wire
I'm watching her dance
Dress is catching the light

In her eyes there's no lies, no lies
There's no question, she's not in a disguise


With 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 in your eyes
And I've got something missing tonight
What a feeling to be a king beside you, somehow

I wish I could be there now

Through the wire, through the wire, through the wire

I'm watching you like this, imagining you're mine
It's too late, it's too late, am I too late?
Tell me now, am I running out of time?


With 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 in your eyes
And I've got something missing tonight

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

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 in your eyes
And I've got something missing tonight
What a feeling to be a king beside you, somehow

I wish I could be there now
I wish I could be there now
