Huey Lewis Amp The News Walking On A Thin Line Lyrics

Walking On A Thin Line Lyrics

Sometimes in my bed at night 



 I curse the dark and a pray for light 



 And sometimes, the light's no consolation 



 Blinded by a memory 



 Afraid of what it might do to me 



 And the tears and the sweat only mock my desperation



 



 Don't you know me I'm the boy next door 



 The one you find so easy to ignore 



 Is that what I was fighting for? 



 Walking on a thin line 



 Straight off the front line 



 Labeled as freaks loose on the streets of the city 



 Walking on a thin line 



 Straight off the front line 



 Take a look at my face, see what it's doing to me



 



 Taught me how to shoot to kill 



 A specialist with a deadly skill 



 A skill I needed to have to be a survivor 



 It's over now or so they say 



 Well, sometimes, it don't turn out that way 



 Cause your never the same when you've been under fire



 



 Don't you know me I'm the boy next door 



 The one you find so easy to ignore 



 Is that what I was fighting for? 



 Walking on a thin line 



 Straight off the front line 



 Labeled as freaks loose on the streets of the city 



 Walking on a thin line 



 Straight off the front line 



 Take a look at my face, see what it's doing to me
