I keep a close watch on this heart of mine,
i keep my eyes wide open all the time,
i keep the ends out for the ties that bind,
because you're mine, i walk the line.
I find it very, very easy to be true,
i find myself alone when each day is through,
yes, i'll admit that i'm a fool for you,
because you're mine, i walk the line.
You've got a way to keep me on your side,
you give me cause for love that i can't hide,
for you i know i'd even try to turn the tide,
because you're mine i walk the line.
As sure as night is dark and day is light,
i keep you on my mind both day and night,
and happiness proves that i'm right,
because you're mine i walk the line.
(repeat 1st verse)
