I’ve got this streak, this forgetful bend, And I know where those little things can lead to. [Chorus] I’ll hold the line, I won’t let it fray, When I miss a stitch, I’ll fix it next day. It’s not grand, it’s not bright, it’s just getting it right. I’ll hold the line, I’ll hold the line. [Verse 2] You said it’s not the words, but what you see, What I do when nobody’s keeping score. So I keep a list in my pocket now, And I check it twice before I walk out the door. [Chorus] I’ll hold the line, I won’t let it fray, When I miss a stitch, I’ll fix it next day. It’s not grand, it’s not bright, it’s just getting it right. I’ll hold the line, I’ll hold the line. [Bridge] I don’t know how to promise too far, But I know I can quit calling it who I am. [Final Chorus] I’ll hold the line, I won’t let it fray, When I miss a stitch, I’ll fix it next day. It’s not grand, it’s not bright, it’s just getting it right. I’ll hold the line, I’ll hold the line. [end]
