    Lyrics:
    How much longer ′til the curtain rises?
    First night stage fright always hypnotises
    Leading ladies never think about it
    Live without it
    Try to hide your fear of falling
    Keep your eyes on me - I'm calling..
    Don′t look down girl
    You know you're holding aces
    Don′t look down girl
    Don't give the game away
    One more heartbeat and you walk the wire
    Why wait? It′s too late to put out the fire
    Almost strangers - can you stop deceiving
    Start believing?
    Try to hide your fear of falling
    Keep your eyes on me - I'm calling..
    Don′t look down girl
    You know you′re holding aces
    Don't look down girl
    Don′t give the game away
    Even when you feel you can't go on
    Laughing at the rain you fool no one
    If you don′t wanna lose what you have found
    Then don't look down..
    Changing partners is just substitution
    It′s no solution
    Try to hide your fear of falling
    Keep your eyes on me - I'm calling..

      Everyone from every era poses the same question. Such is life.. As to this song, my question is why was / is it not more popular? It is well written , decent lyrics, good vocals and nice instrumentation. More importantly, the melody and chorus work.

    Peter Cox's trajectory reminds me a lot of Steven Seagal's. Both men had instant success at a very ripe age, out of nowhere. Although they both shared a relatively short peak success, they are both examples of people who were not young in their debut, however achieved worldwide superstar status overnight.
