A Fine Line

(radney foster)



There's 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



He's got a wife and two kids, they love him so

And a woman down in georgia, she startin' to show

He's damned if he leaves and he' sure damned if he don't

And he wonders how life got this way



('cause its) a fine line in between right and wrong

(yeah) he's been crossing over that border way too long

He shoulda seen it comin' at him right from the start

Now there ain't 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

They're both gonna have his babies now



So how do you confess what words won't 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)



He'll turn his care around tonight

Go home and try to face the truth

Everyone involed's getting" hurt

And there aint nothin' he can do



He shoulda seen it comin' at him right from the start

Now there ain't no escape, now there ain't no escape

From



(repeat chorus)



Now there ain't no escape from a broken heart

Yeah they're all gonna wind up with a broken heart

Nobody's getting' out without a broken heart
