Maya Angelou
Love Is On The Line
[Intro: Maya Angelou]
It is very hard to fall in love and stay there
But love is love

[Chorus 1]
I'm so tired of waiting
Baby, why do you keep hesitating?
Oh, 'cause it's my heart that you're breaking
When love is on the line

[Verse 1]
I've got this feeling, deep inside, a fire that won't relent
But every time I try to speak, my words are never sent
I see you there, you're in my thoughts, a constant melody
But you're a book with hidden lines, and I'm the one to read

[Chorus 2]
I'm so tired of waiting
Baby, why do you keep hesitating?
Oh, 'cause it's my hеart that you're breaking
When lovе is on the line
How I wish you would say it
Shout it from the rooftops and embrace it
Oh, 'cause it's my heart that you're breaking
When love is on the line
[Verse 2]
I catch your gaze, I see your smile, a warmth that I can't deny
But in the depth of your eyes, the truth is locked up tight
I pen these verses in the dark, my heart bleeding through the ink
Hoping that you'd just tell me the words you're too scared to speak

[Chorus 3]
'Cause I'm so tired of waiting
Baby, why do you keep hesitating?
Oh, 'cause it's my heart that you're breaking
When love is on the line
How I wish you would say it
Shout it from the rooftops and embrace it
Oh, 'cause it's my heart that you're breaking
When love is on the line


[Bridge]
Maybe one day you'll hear the whispers of my heart
And you'll understand the love that's been there from the start

[Chorus 4]
I'm so tired of waiting
Baby, why do you keep hesitating?
Oh, 'cause it's my heart that you're breaking
When love is on the line
How I wish you would say it
Shout it from the rooftops and embrace it
Oh, 'cause it's my heart that you're breaking
When love is on the line
