BILLY STRINGS
"On The Line"
(William Apostol)

You can't stop us from movin'
You can't stop us from feelin' fine
You can't stop us from puttin' our lives on the line

You can't stop us from dancin'
You can't stop us from feelin' high
We can't help it if we'd like to stay out all night

It's a cure for the bleakness
It's a pill for the day-to-day
It's just a way for me to shake loose the dust and the clay

[Chorus:]
I'd love show you, but you wouldn't go
I'd love to take you, but I know the way you roll
You see it your way, I see it mine and I'll be fine
You see it your way, I see it mine and I'll be fine

While we're young and resilient
While fearless and fancy free
We'll be fine without you and your numbers and lines

While we're wishing and watching
While we're wishing and watching here
We won't see your illusional blanket of fear

Like a wave through the ocean
Like a gust on an August
While we're movin' you won't stand a chance in our way

[Chorus:]
I'd love show you, but you wouldn't go
I'd love to take you, but I know the way you roll
You see it your way, I see it mine and I'll be fine
You see it your way, I see it mine and I'll be fine

Should've been gone for years now
You should've packed up and left this place
You should've ducked out and given up your spot in the race

You can cling to your madness
You can swim down and hold your breath
But I'll be standing on dry ground with all of the rest

[Chorus:]
I'd love show you, but you wouldn't go
I'd love to take you, but I know the way you roll
You see it your way, I see it mine and I'll be fine
You see it your way, I see it mine and I'll be fine
You see it your way, I see it mine and I'll be fine
