Hardliner: she brings ice when I bring fire
She′s a hardliner: tightrope 'cross Niagara, she′d cut the wire
Never feel a thing. Walk the sidewalk of another strange avenue
Kick my heels and wish my feet were in some other shoes
But I'm not running from that hardliner
She brings ice when I bring fire
She's a real hardliner: how does she retain my hard desire?
It′s a funny thing. Knows what she wants, knows how to get it too
Scares me with cold logic, scares me with her witches′ brew
But I keep on drinking. Hardliner
Hardliner: I'm framed and I′m hanging on her wall
She's a hardliner: I′m like some big-
Game trophy, hat-stand in the hall
But I remember warm and loving nights
Pier-head restaurants, swaying masthead lights
It's a funny thing. Hardliner
She brings ice when I bring fire
Hardliner: tightrope ′cross Niagara, don't cut my wire
Hardliner: she brings sun when I bring rain
She's a real hardliner: we got it all crossed up again
Hardliner. Hardliner. Now I don′t think we can stay in the same town
