Steppin' across the line, I ain't seen you look so good before,
Hoping your bright blue eyes, shine a light, shine on me once more,
All that I've been trying to say, is I ain't standing in your way,
But I'd sure like to stay with you tonight;

CHORUS:
Steppin' across the line, tears that fall on lonely nights,
I talk more than I've got the right - steppin' across the line,
Steppin' across the line;

Sittin' outside your door, my words seem like echoes in the wind,
Waitin' here in the hall, rehearse my lines,
Not knowing when to give in,
Honey you look so good to me, I may be a fool but as far as I see,
I love you - and obsessions closing in;

Steppin' across the line, tears that fall on lonely nights,
I talk more than I've got the right - steppin' across the line,
Steppin' across the line;

I've been down more than a few times,
And I've known the fear of a long night,
This heart's as true as a heart can be,
And I'm hoping you'll shine your light on me.
Steppin across the line, tears that fall on lonely nights,
I talk more than I've got the right - steppin' across the line,
Steppin' across the line.
