Cross The Line - Howard Jones

It’s not my fault if you didn’t live out your

Youthful dreams

Now you want to backtrack, how different it all seems

Love seems to be like alcohol, evaporates before your eyes

The bonds that once were welcome, become the chains we despise

When you cross that line, there’s no turning back

When you cross that line, don’t come knocking at my door

Everyone has got to take some responsibility

The grass is rarely bluer, but you wouldn’t take it from me

Finding out the hard way can be an endless affair

I’d stop you if I could, but then again, I wouldn’t dare

I’m telling you when I say these words, that

They’re not spoken in bitterness

That destructive emotion has long ago left

And these tears that cleanse the soul and let me

Start afresh

When you cross that line, what more can I say

When you cross that line, we are no more

We are no more
