Words :

They're going higher
Wind is whistling on the barbs
Your head's a hammer

Hang Wire  x 3
(Meet you at the) Hang Wire

That man is a liar
The day is like a warm night
Salt rusts the cold line

Hang Wire  x 3             
(Meet you at the) Hang Wire

Every morning and every day
I'll bossanova with ya

If there were a fire
Can we scratch beneath it

Hang Wire  x 3             
(Meet you at the) Hang Wire
