Cross the Line Songtext
von Uriah Heep
Cross the Line Songtext
What do you say
To a talk over dinner
Though we haven′t
Spoken for a while
This time I won't take no
For an answer
You can′t hide forever
From your only son
Let's take a seat
Right here by the window
I remember how you like the view
Now look me in the eye
The truth I wanna hear
The time is right
There's a shadow hanging
Over me tonight
Tell me what you did now
Even though it hurts to say
It′s always been a mystery
Locked behind the door
Tell me is it true now
Do you need the heart to say it
I always did my best for you
Don′t you lie
Don't you lie no more
You tought me the way
To be a winner
And never to play
On the losing side
I guess that I turned out
The way you always planned
So hard to cross that line
But the words have got to come
From you this time
To a talk over dinner
Though we haven′t
Spoken for a while
This time I won't take no
For an answer
You can′t hide forever
From your only son
Let's take a seat
Right here by the window
I remember how you like the view
Now look me in the eye
The truth I wanna hear
The time is right
There's a shadow hanging
Over me tonight
Tell me what you did now
Even though it hurts to say
It′s always been a mystery
Locked behind the door
Tell me is it true now
Do you need the heart to say it
I always did my best for you
Don′t you lie
Don't you lie no more
You tought me the way
To be a winner
And never to play
On the losing side
I guess that I turned out
The way you always planned
So hard to cross that line
But the words have got to come
From you this time
