I've been under the impression
We had a little kind of thing going on
A touch and a kiss, a wink and a smile
These stolen moments linger long, after you're gone
But lately I've been wondering, where do I stand
If I figure in your future
'Cos the spell you've put me under, means I'm going nowhere
Until I know your answer
That's why I'm layin' it on the line
Won't you tell me if you'll be mine
Said I'm layin' it on the line
Do you want me to stay, or do I walk away
If you say so, I'll be your hear and now
I swear we'd never part
But if you say no, don't let me down gently
I need to make a brand new start
I'm losing my handle on the situation
I'm constantly astounded by the life you lead
I image your world is a beautiful place
Can you imagine a place in it for me
I'll let you call the shots, take it or leave it
But I just need some relief
The waiting is killing me, don't leave me hanging on
Or lead me along with some false belief
Higher, higher higher baby
That's why I'm layin' it on the line
Won't you tell me if you'll be mine
Said I'm layin' it, layin' it on the line
Do you want me to stay, or do I walk away
Do I hold you tight, or do we say goodnight
Layin' it, Layin' it
Layin' it, Layin' it
Layin' it, Layin' it (I gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta know)
Layin' it, Layin' it, , Layin' it on the line
Layin' it, Layin' it (this time I really got to know)
Layin' it, Layin' it
Layin' it, Layin' it
