There Is a Line

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It's hard to tell Just when the night becomes the day That golden moment When the darkness rolls away But there is a moment nonetheless In the regions of the heart there is a place A sacred charter that should not be erased It is the marrow, the moral core That I can not ignore [Chorus] Within the scheme of things Well, I know where I stand My convictions they define who I am Some move the boundaries at any cost But there is a line I will not cross No riding on the fence, no alibis No building on the sands of compromise I won't be borrowed and I can't be bought, no There is a line I will not cross [Verse 2] Ask the ocean Where the water meets the land He will tell you It depends on where you stand And you're neither right or wrong But in the fathoms Of the soul that won't ring true 'Cause truth is more Than an imposing point of view It rises above the changing tide As sure as the morning sky [Chorus] Within the scheme of things Well, I know where I stand My convictions they define who I am Some move the boundaries at any cost But there is a line I will not cross No riding on the fence, no alibis No building on the sands of compromise I won't be borrowed and I can't be bought There is a line I will not cross [Instrumental Bridge] [Chorus] Within the scheme of things I know where I stand My convictions they define who I am Some move the boundaries at any cost But there is a line I will not cross No riding on the fence, no alibis No building on the sands of compromise I won't be borrowed and I can't be bought, no There is a line, oh, there is a line There is a line I will not cross
