lyrics

Baby I know I can’t dance
But I know how to walk the line
See I’ve been down that road before
Maybe one too many times
Baby I know I can’t dance
But I know how to walk the line
See I’ve been down that road before
That’s how they broke this heart of mine
See I’ve been down that road before
That’s how they broke this heart of mine

When you pulled me to the floor
You know you made me feel a fool
And so I stumbled to my feet
I never thought you’d be so cruel
And as I shuffled two left feet
I felt all their eyes on me
But I’m no stranger now to shame
It’s been a constant friend to me

Baby I know I can’t dance
But I know how to walk the line
See I’ve been down that road before
Maybe one too many times
Baby I know I can’t dance
But I know how to walk the line
See I’ve been down that road before
That’s how they broke this heart of mine
See I’ve been down that road before
That’s how they broke this heart of mine

But when you you pulled me close to you
I saw the look glow from your eyes
And all I saw in there was love
You know you took me by surprise
And so you led me round the floor
And all I felt with you was pride
And even though I couldn’t dance
I was the man there at your side

Baby I know I can’t dance
But I know how to walk the line
See I’ve been down that road before
Maybe one too many times
Baby I know I can’t dance
But I know how to walk the line
Now I’ve been down that road with you
That’s how they cured this heart of mine
Now I’ve been down that road with you
That’s how they cured this heart of mine
