I'm walking the line
  I'm walking the line
  treading thin ice
  time after time
  
  I go for the best, end up with much less
  I need the real thing
  forget all the rest
  oh yeah, alright
  
  Started out good
  working out bad
  all the sweet love turner
  sour and sad
  
  A face and name
  it's always the same
  so tired of playing love's foolish games
  tell me why
  love passes me by
  
  Cold love, cold love
  another shot of rock'n'roll love
  cold love, cold love
  whatever happened to that
  good old love
  tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
  tell me why, tell me why
  
  Hope in the dark, love in the light
  I'll keep on looking for someone
  who's right
  
  I'm out for the best
  can you stand the test
  I need the real thing
  no more and no less
  tell me why
  love passes me by
  
  Cold love, cold love
  another shot of rock'n'roll love
  cold love, cold love
  whatever happened to that
  sweet old love
  tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
  tell me why, tell me why
  
  Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
  tell me why, tell me why
  
  Cold love, cold love
  whatever happened to that
  sweet old love
  Cold love, cold love
  another shot of rock'n'roll love
  cold love, cold love
  whatever happened to that
  sweet old love
  cold love, cold love
  whatever happened to that
  sweet old love
