The Uncrossed Line There is a line between you and me One that we have yet to cross Both knowing that our affair May come at too great a cost Sometimes this line is great gulf fixed At other times no more than a thin fine wire But we walk this line and take that chance Moving the kerosene ever closer to the fire The fates have conspired to keep it there When our bodies and minds have not Every well-made plan has been foiled Sometimes by an appointment one of us forgot We play this game with each other Knowing that one of us will lose Not daring to think about tomorrow Or which one the fates will choose So you'll take my hand and dance with me Till the line forever fades away We live not our lives for tomorrow For fear of losing our today |
