Lyrics:

Words and music by Christopher Cross

Taking my time
Walking the line
For someone who doesn't care
Taking my time
Just walking the line
For someone who's never there

It's a fool's game--that I know
Nothing but a broken heart to show
And I know I'll never change
It's the nature of the game

She loves me--she loves me not
Remember how your heart used to stop
As the petals would hit the floor
How you wished there could be just one more
