Because you're mine, I walk the line
Because you're mine, I walk the line
You give me cause for love that I can't hide
For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I find myself alone when each day's through
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
I find it very, very easy to be true
Yes, I'll admit that I'm a fool for you
You've got a way to keep me on your side
Because you're mine, I walk the line
I keep you on my mind both day and night
Because you're mine, I walk the line
And happiness I've known proves that it's right
As sure as night is dark and day is light
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
