When I look into your eyes I See my hopes and dreams And all I wished I could be I watched half my life Through a whiskey bottle I've walked the knife and seen the bottom When I was young I lived my life fast and hard I thought I had it all And I'm left with only scars When an old man cries tears for his son His heart of gold can break like glass I've walked that line I made mistakes I'm disobeyed the signs I've been up and down and in between I've walked that line I've walked that line When it all came down like a rolling stone The only thing I gathered Was the pain I did not own That well of holy water Was really devil's blood Sweet in the beginning Then your drowning in the flood When I was young I lived my life fast and hard I thought I had it all And I'm left with only scars When an old man cries tears for his son His heart of gold can break like glass I've walked that line I made mistakes I'm disobeyed the signs I've been up and down and in between I've walked that line I've walked that line
