Lyrics:

You been hurt and you're all cried out, you say
You walk down the street pushin' people out of your way
You packed your bags and all alone you wanna ride
You don't want nothin', don't need no one by your side

You're walkin' tough baby, but you're walkin' blind
To the ties that bind
The ties that bind
Now you can't break the ties that bind

Cheap romance, it's all just, just a crutch
You don't want nothin' that anybody can touch
You're so afraid of being somebody's fool
Not walkin' tough baby, not walkin' cool

You walk cool, but darlin', can you walk the line?
And face the ties that bind
The ties that bind
Now you can't break the ties that bind

Oh, I'd rather feel the hurt inside, yes I would darlin'
Than know, than know the emptiness your heart must hide
Yes I would darlin', yes I would darlin'
Yes I would baby

You sit and wonder just who's gonna stop the rain
Who'll ease the sadness, who's gonna quiet the pain?
It's a long dark highway and a thin white line
Connecting baby, your heart to mine

We're runnin' now but darlin' we will stand in time
To face the ties that bind
The ties that bind
Now you can't break the ties that bind

You can't forsake the ties that bind
