Thin Grey Line

Loretta Lynn · Ernest Tubbs & Loretta Lynn Singin' Again [1967]

I can't say that it's black

I can't say that it's white

Is it really wrong

Is it really right.



We don't know

Where to place it

I guess we'll have

To face it.

We walk the thin grey line of love.



We shouldn't be together

We have so much to lose

One of us must make the choice

But please don't make me choose.



I feel I've got to have you

I feel the same way too

Our love should go

For we both know.

We walk the thin grey line of love.



--- Instrumental ---



We both tried hard to break up

But we just break each vow

If you'll just say you don't love me

I'd stay away somehow.



But you know I can't say it

And I'd die if you could

We'll break our home as if we'll go on

Walkin' the thin grey line of love.



Yes, we walk the thin grey line of love...
