[Verse 1] When love is gone and there’s no one around All that’s left is the sound of a breaking heart Left in the dark, left as a lost and found I thought we had it all, now it's just the lonely beat of my heart [Pre-Chorus] I gave too much, thought love was enough But even the sweetest touch can turn rough Now I know what I should’ve known from the start Even when it’s real… you’ve gotta hide your heart [Chorus] When love is on the line… You need to hide your heart, (hide your heart... echo) When love is on the line… Don’t hand it all away, don’t let it go breaking apart When love is on the line… You need to hide your heart, (hide your heart... harmonies) [Verse 2] I gave too much, too fast, too blind Put trust in words you left behind You smiled, I sank — I should’ve known A heart wide open stands alone I let you close, ignored the signs Chased the dream, and paid the fines But now I see the cost was mine And next time, love won’t cross that line [Pre-Chorus 2] I know the signs, I’ve seen the cost Love without guard means something gets lost You gave me nothing, I gave too much Now I hold back where I used to trust [Chorus 2] Yeahhh... When love is on the line… You need to hide your heart (hide your heart...) When love is on the line… Don’t hand it all away, don’t let it go breaking apart When love is on the line… You need to hide your heart That’s why you gotta… Hide your heart. [Bridge] I gave too much, too fast, too free Lost myself trying to make you see Next time I feel that fire start... I’ll hold the line— And hide my heart [Final Chorus] Yeahhh... When love is on the line… You need to hide your heart (hide your heart...) When love is on the line… Don’t hand it all away, don’t let it go breaking apart When love is on the line… You need to hide your heart When love is on the line… You learn to hide your heart (hide your heart...) Not every touch is coming from the heart Don’t hand it all away, don’t let it fall apart When love is on the line… You need to hide your heart (hide your heart... hide your heart...)
