[Intro – restrained, same melody as chorus]
Lose the line
(Cross it now)
[Guitars swell – drums build – RIFF HITS]
[Verse 1]
I’m holding my breath again
It’s every look that you send
You don’t even know it
But you pull me closer every time
All the rules are slowly fading
You don’t turn, you don’t deny
You’re already crossing
That invisible line
[Pre-Chorus]
(Crossing inside)
The room gets quiet, time slows down
No one’s wrong and no one’s right
Just this moment, just tonight
(This moment, just tonight)
[Chorus – BIG, ANTHEMIC]
Lose the line (lose the line)
Cross it now (yeah, cross it now)
You and me — it’s never safe
(Just lose the line)
Lose the line (lose the line)
When your eyes meet mine
(Your eyes meet mine)
You already know the sign
(Just lose the line)
No control, no more reason, no disguise
(Yeah, just lose the line)
You know you’re mine tonight
[Verse 2]
You laugh it off but you don’t move
Say nothing like you’ve got nothing to prove
I’m standing steady right before the fall
Hands are shaking — I feel it all
Every doubt just disappears
Stay right here (stay here)
Say the word or let it slide
Either way, we’re crossing tonight
[Pre-Chorus]
(We’re crossing tonight)
The room gets quiet, time slows down
No one’s wrong and no one’s right
Just this moment, just tonight
(This moment, just tonight)
[Chorus – bigger harmonies]
Lose the line (lose the line)
Cross it now (yeah, cross it now)
You and me — it’s never safe
(Just lose the line)
Lose the line (lose the line)
When your eyes meet mine
(Your eyes meet mine)
You already know the sign
(Just lose the line)
No control, no more reason, no disguise
(Yeah, just lose the line)
You know you’re mine tonight
[Bridge – breakdown → build, tom-heavy, gang vocals]
Don’t say stop, don’t say go
You don’t have to let me know
Every secret’s in your eyes
You’re already on my side
(Oh-oh-oh)
(Yeah-yeah-yeah)
Heartbeat racing — feel the spark
Strike the match inside the dark
No more waiting, no more lies
We ignite tonight
[Final Chorus – KEY CHANGE optional for 80s drama]
Lose the line (lose the line!)
Cross it now (yeah, cross it now!)
You and me — it’s never safe
(Just lose the line!)
Lose the line (lose the line!)
When your eyes meet mine
(Your eyes meet mine!)
You already know the sign
(Just lose the line!)
No control, no more reason, no disguise
(Yeah, just lose the line!)
You know you’re mine tonight
[Outro – chant, crowd call-and-response]
Lose the line
Lose the line tonight
Lose the line
Cross it now
