Richard Marx - Heart on the Line Lyrics

Complimentary "Heart on the Line" Ringtone

One look in your innocent eyes 
And I knew you had to be the one 
You walked out of all of my dreams 
Never thought the day would really come 

I’ve been standing in a long desperate line 
Waiting for somebody like you 
I may only be wasting my time 
Don’t know what else to do 

If you turn me away 
Just be careful what you say 
Girl, you’ve got my heart on the line 
Don’t be mean, don’t be cruel 
Don’t you treat me like a fool 
Girl, you’ve got my heart on the line 

It’s too late to be wishing I was 
In somebody else’s shoes this time 
I’m tied up, like a slave to a chain 
Praying that you’ll please be kind 

If it’s true that love’s a disease 
Baby, I’m a dangerous case 
I beg for mercy, got me down on my knees 
You’ve got a smile on your face 

If you turn me away 
Just be careful what you say 
Girl, you’ve got my heart on the line 
Don’t be mean, don’t be cruel 
Don’t you treat me like a fool 
Girl, you’ve got my heart on the line 

I don’t want to stay 
In my own little world 
So if you want to play 
Won’t you show me, little girl 

If you turn me away 
Just be careful what you say 
Girl, you’ve got my heart on the line 
Don’t be mean, don’t be cruel 
Don’t you treat me like a fool 
Girl, you’ve got my heart on the line
