Rise to the top of the world, America America, don't you cry Give me strength to press on Feel you close like you wanted me to Believe in you Is this just an illusion That I made inside my head to get me by? Twenty years in debt

Like roulette, o-o Like roulette Wanna close my eyes and roll it, with you Wanna lose control and forget with you Let's roll it Big city lights Got me flirting with fire Tonight I'ma let my hair down Have a few rounds and just let go

Oh, I don't wanna share you with nothing else I gotta have you to myself I just can't get you close enough, no Yeah, if I were the moon I could catch your eye I'm jealous of the moon If I were the wind I would make you fly I'm jealous of that too, yeah

Can't I get back my lonely life California waiting Every little thing's gotta be just right While you're tryin' to save me Little Mona Lisa laying by my side "Crimson and Clover" pullin' overtime I feel too close to be losin' touch

But you're not a man You're just a Mannequin I wish you could feel that my love is real I'm such a fool Cause you're not a man You're just a, a toy Could you ever be a real, real boy And understand How do I get closer to you

'Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wire I'm just a man on a wire, oh My heart is in my throat I'm counting on high hopes to get me over you And I've got my eyes closed As long as the wind blows I'm counting on high hopes to get me over you, you I'm a man

I will love you unconditionally Unconditional, unconditionally Let go and just be free There is no fear now Open up your heart, and just let it begin I will love you Oh no, did I get too close oh? Oh, did I almost see what's really on the inside? All

Nowhere to be and all night to get there All night-breathing the same air Real close and real slow baby Just you and me and love laying right here Sunset watching us disappear We've got nowhere to be and all Night to get there We can do anything-I don't

I couldn’t see But, sooner or later, one of us must know Sooner or later, one of us must know That I really did try to get close to you I didn’t mean That you just did what you’re supposed to do To treat you so bad You shouldn’t take it so personal To

I just wanna know oh, oh, oh, oh Don’t you see me When did you get so cold oh, oh, oh What happened to your soul oh oh oh I thought that we were close Guess you don’t need me Yeah, yeah, only time you ever call me is when you feelin’ like don't nobody
