A Fine Line lyrics

(radney foster)

Theres a curve in the highway just south of town
Where a man has pulled over to figure life out
With only his conscience and the lonesome sound
Of diesels windin up the grade

Hes got a wife and two kids, they love him so
And a woman down in georgia, she startin to show
Hes damned if he leaves and he sure damned if he dont
And he wonders how life got this way

(cause its) a fine line in between right and wrong
(yeah) hes been crossing over that border way too long
He shoulda seen it comin at him right from the start
Now there aint no escape from a broken heart

Now the call of the highway is a powerful thing
Like the pull of a lover or a child in a swing
He gave his heart to two women, only one wears his ring
Theyre both gonna have his babies now

So how do you confess what words wont explain
He never intended to cause this much pain
Now he feels like a farmer who went prayin for rain
And got that he bargained from the clouds

(and its) (repeat chorus)

Hell turn his care around tonight
Go home and try to face the truth
Everyone involeds getting hurt
And there aint nothin he can do

He shoulda seen it comin at him right from the start
Now there aint no escape, now there aint no escape
From

(repeat chorus)

Now there aint no escape from a broken heart
Yeah theyre all gonna wind up with a broken heart
Nobodys getting out without a broken heart
