"On The Line" lyrics

"On The Line"

It used to be Bobby forever
We were together day and night
He left me for an east side girl
Called Caroline, uh
Before you let her under your sweater, tonight

Listen to my heart beating
Listen to my heart beating
Listen to my heart beating
On the line
On the line

Whenever things get complicated you run away to Mexico
Boy, you got me infuriated
I'm never gonna let you go

It used to be Bobby forever
We were together day and night
He left me for a super-fan
Called Caroline, uh
Before you let her under your sweater, tonight

Listen to my heart beating
Listen to my heart beating
Listen to my heart beating
On the line
On the line

Whenever things get complicated you run away to Mexico
Boy, you got me infuriated
I'm never gonna let you go
You're not the only one with a crown
You're not the only one who gets down
You're not the only one on the town tonight

Before you let her under your sweater, tonight
Listen to my heart beating
Listen to my heart beating
Listen to my heart beating
On the line
On the line
