Cross The Line
Paxton Ingram Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I got the love, I got the love that you want
But you push me out, into the back of your heart
Just like the sun, whenever it's dark yeah you run
You run away, right from the place that we start

I know that I'm in your head,
it's getting harder to fight, up and down you can't get know sleep,
need a new state of mind.
Don't you know talk is cheap, told you my love is blind
It's getting deep, it's getting bad real deep,
don't you wanna cross the line
(know you wanna cross the line)

Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Don't need another girl
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
When were together trying
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
My heart is breaking, my heart is waiting
When we gonna cross the line

You got the light,
You got the light that I need,
but I close my eyes, you seem too good to believe
Believe you were mine, just like the moon to the night
I run away 'cause I don't even know where to start

I know that I'm in your head, it's getting harder to fight,
Up and down you can't get know sleep,
Need a new state of mind
Don't you know talk is cheap, told you my love is blind
It's getting deep, it's getting bad real deep,
Don't you wanna cross the line
(know you wanna cross the line)

Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Don't need another girl
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
When were together trying
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
My heart is breaking, my heart is waiting
When we gonna cross the line

Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Don't need another girl
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
When were together trying
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
My heart is breaking, my heart is waiting,
When we gonna cross the line

I know that I'm in your head
it's getting harder to fight
Up and down you can't get know sleep
Need a new state of mind
Don't you know talk is cheap, told you my love is blind
It's getting deep, it's getting bad real deep
Don't you wanna cross the line
(know you wanna cross the line.)

Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Don't need another girl
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
When were together trying
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
My heart is breaking, my heart is waiting
When we gonna cross the line

Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Don't need another girl
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
When were together trying
Yeah yeah yeah yeah




My heart is breaking, my heart is waiting
When we gonna cross the line

Line by Line Meaning

I got the love, I got the love that you want
I know I have all the love you desire


But you push me out, into the back of your heart
However, you keep pushing me away; not giving me a chance to be with you fully


Just like the sun, whenever it's dark yeah you run
Whenever things get difficult, you retreat and abandon me


You run away, right from the place that we start
You always escape from our problems instead of confronting them head on


I know that I'm in your head, it's getting harder to fight, up and down you can't get know sleep, need a new state of mind.
I am aware that you think about me a lot, and it's causing you to struggle and feel restless. You need to change your mindset to overcome it


Don't you know talk is cheap, told you my love is blind
You need to understand that words can be meaningless; I have expressed that my love for you is genuine


It's getting deep, it's getting bad real deep, don't you wanna cross the line (know you wanna cross the line)
Our relationship is becoming more serious and complex, and you must decide if you want to take the next step with me or not


Don't need another girl
I don't want anyone else but you


When were together trying
We must work together to make our relationship work


My heart is breaking, my heart is waiting
I am going through heartache while waiting for you to fully commit


When we gonna cross the line
When will we take the next step in our relationship?


You got the light,You got the light that I need,but I close my eyes, you seem too good to believe
You have the positivity and hope that I require, but I am skeptical of whether it could work out between us


Believe you were mine, just like the moon to the night
I used to think you were destined to be mine, like how the moon is destined to appear at night


I run away cause I don't even know where to start
I tend to avoid facing our relationship issues because I don't know how to fix them
