Another story's been told with my name in the fold.
It's always the same old thing, some joker being bold.
So when I finally say 'who's telling' all these little lies she's yelling,
I always get the same.
Why does she keep protecting these jokers when she tells me,
she's not saying any names.
I'll make a gesture in the air,
cause I'm tryna be polite.
It's like I'm the only one who cares.
Please show me, please show me I'm not right.
But you just do what you can. Take her by the hand.
Tell her the truth. Remind her what you are both fighting for.
Even if that takes breaking the rules to beat other fools,
who hide in the dark and think that their gonna bring you down.
So wont you hear it from me.
From the horses mouth.
We'll read between the lines.
Find the lies and blot em out.
I'll make a gesture in the air,
cause I'm tryna be polite.
It's like I'm the only one who cares.
Please show me, please show me I'm not right.
Because,
It's not easy to do, when love is on the line.
It's not easy to do, when love is on the line.
It's not easy to do, when love is on the line.
It's not easy to do, when love is on the line.
But you just do what you can. Take her by the hand.
Tell her the truth. Remind her what you are both fighting for.
Even if that takes breaking the rules to beat other fools,
who hide in the dark and think that their gonna bring you down.
Because,
It's not easy to do, when love is on the line.
It's not easy to do, when love is on the line.
It's not easy to do, when love is on the line.
It's not easy to do, when love is on the line.
