Lyrics
Oh-oh, mmh
Ah, yeah
Mmh
You know you've got to throw your body around
You say there ain't no way to scare you, knock you down
High wire routine is working for you
Ain't nothing there for you to hold on to
High wire, so far to the end
So many chances to miss your step
If you stand up, oh, baby (all on your own)
If you fall down, fall down, fall down (always alone)
Hold on to yourself, baby (hold on)
'Cause no one else will, ooh (hold on, hold on to yourself, hold on)
Hold on to yourself, baby (hold on)
'Cause no one else will, ooh (hold on, hold on to yourself, hold on)
Some people gonna watch your every move
You know there's always something there for you to prove
High wire, so far to look down
No one to catch you when you hit the ground
If you stand up, oh, yeah (all on your own)
If you fall down, fall down, fall down (always alone)
Hold on to yourself, baby (hold on)
'Cause no one else will, ooh (hold on, hold on to yourself, hold on)
Hold on to yourself, baby (hold on)
'Cause no one else will, ooh (hold on, hold on to yourself, hold on)
If you stand up, oh, yeah (all on your own)
If you fall down, fall down (always alone)
And maybe, if you need help (nobody else)
You gotta hold on, hold on, hold on (all by yourself)
Watch your body, take a hold of yourself
You've got to make it 'cause there's no one else
Keep your balance 'til the end of the line
You've got to find a way to get it right
Hold on to yourself, baby (hold on)
'Cause no one else will, ooh (hold on, hold on to yourself, hold on)
Hold on to yourself, baby (hold on)
'Cause no one else will, ooh, hold on (all on your own, hold on)
Gotta hold on (hold on)
'Cause no one else will, ooh (hold on, hold on to yourself, hold on)
Hold on to yourself, baby (hold on)
You gotta stand up, stand down, stand up, stand down, yeah
If you stand up, if you fall down (hold on)
If you need help, I'll be around (hold on, hold on to yourself, hold on)
Gotta hold on, baby, by yourself (hold on)
In the meantime, in between time, baby
Hold on to yourself, baby (hold on)
'Cause no one else will, ooh (hold on, hold on to yourself, hold on)
Hold on to yourself, baby (hold on)
