Love On A Tightrope (Like An Animal) - The Cross

Listen — trapped again

Love on a lead is what you need

Love on a leash is what you wish

Love on a tightrope is what you get

Love on a steep slope you ain’t seen nothing yet

When you smile, that wide wide smile

That tiger smile, I’m trapped again

Be my dog, be my pet, like a nervous tic

You just won’t quit, like a nervous tic you just won’t quit

You don’t need a doctor, you need a vet

And when you laugh, your crazy laugh

That wild cat laugh, I’m trapped again

Love on a tightrope, love on a tightrope

Our love’s on a steep slope

Love on a tightrope

No don’t give up hope 'Cos when you wish upon a star

Makes no difference who you are

Don’t give up hope our love’s on a tightrope

Like a tiger cat you’re where it’s at Like a crocodile along the Nile

So strange and wild, some kind of reptile

Love on a lead is what you need

And when you smile, that wide wild smile

That tiger smile, I’m trapped again

Trapped again

They say never bite the hand that feeds

Just one look and my heart bleeds

Love on a tightrope, love on a tightrope

You know, our love’s on a steep slope

Love on a tightrope

No don’t give up hope, 'Cos when you wish upon a star

Makes no difference who you are

Don’t give up hope our love’s on a tightrope

Animal eyes — like a real good time

Animal lips it’s a perfect crime

Animal hair it just ain’t fair

Like an animal

You’re an animal
