i walk the line

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's 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 i've known proves that it's right because you're mine i walk the line
