You've been hurt and you're all cried out, you say
You walk down the street pushin' people out of your way
You've packed your bags and all alone you wanna ride
You don't want nothin', don't need no one by your side
You're walkin' tough baby, but you're walkin' blind
To the ties that bind
The ties that bind
Now you can't break the ties that bind
A cheap romance, you say it's all just, just a crutch
You don't want nothin' that anybody can touch
You're so afraid of being somebody's fool
Not walkin' tough baby, not walkin' cool
You walk cool, but darlin', can you walk the line?
And face the ties that bind
The ties that bind
Now you can't break the ties that bind
Oh I'd, I'd rather feel the hurt inside, yes I would darling
Than know, than know the emptiness your heart must hide
Yes I would darling, yes I would darling
Yes I would baby
You sit and wonder just who's gonna stop the rain
Who'll ease the sadness, who's gonna quiet your pain?
It's a long dark highway and a thin white line
Connecting baby, your heart to mine
We're runnin' now but darlin' we will stand in time
To face the ties that bind
The ties that bind
Now you can't break the ties that bind
You can't forsake the ties that bind
