Cross The Line Lyrics

I've been discreet and I have been good

I never crossed the line

Never did anything that I should not have done

In all this time, I think I love you

There's a woman I've loved for forty two years, it's true

And she still haunts my dreams

Through all the different darlings and dears

And all the in-betweens

Gonna let her go now, 'cause I love you

Gonna let her go

Everybody tells me that, I'm not to cross the line

Everybody tells me that, you can never be mine

All it would take is just one kiss, and then the trouble would begin

I think that we both know this, this is the shape we're in

Yeah, I think I love you

Why do I want that fruit, that grows so high up in the tree

Just out of reach, is God trying to teach

Some kind of a late lesson to me

Everybody tells me what, I'm not supposed to do

Everybody, everybody, everybody except you

I've been discreet and I have been good

I never crossed the line

Never did anything that I should not have done

In all this time
