Jones, George - Don't Let Me Cross Over Lyrics






(Don't let me cross over)
(Love's cheating line)

I'm tempted my darling
To steal you away
Don't let me cross over
Stay out of my way.

You know that I love you
And I'm not the stealing kind
But I'm faced with heartaches
And love's cheating line.

Don't let me cross over
Love's cheating line
You belong to another
And can never be mine.

I know one step closer
Would be heaven divine
Don't let me cross over
Love's cheating line.

I've tried to forget you
But what else can I do
When your eyes keep saying
That you love me too.

I know if I lose you
Not a dream will be left
I don't want to cheat dear
But I can't help myself.

Don't let me cross over
Love's cheating line
You belong to another
And can never be mine.

I know one step closer
Would be heaven divine
Don't let me cross over
Love's cheating line...

    Oh WOW, GREATEST version BY GEORGE 🎤🎸SO GREAT,no ONE fill Georges shorts,never💕💕💕

  2. M.... A....

    Unfortunately, you all have no taste in great voices. This bloke is not in the same league as the likes of JIM REEVES and MARTY ROBBINS. JIM REEVES sings this song with class. George has an average voice which doesn't even come close to JIM REEVES. Maybe you all should listen to JIM REEVES sing this country song.

    Yes George was great, Conway Twitty was great as well

  8. f.... d....

    Jim Reeves and George Jones did a fine job with this song, but Carl Butler owns this one.

    I'm tempted my darling
    To steal you away
    Don't let me cross overs
    Stay out of my way
    You know that I love you
    But I'm not the cheatin' kind
    But I'm faced with heartaches
    And love's cheating line
    (Both)
    Don't let me cross over
    Love's cheating line
    You belong to another
    And can never be mine
    (Porter)
    I know one step closer
    Would be heaven divine
    (Both)
    Don't let me cross over
    Love's cheating line

    I've tried to forget you
    But what else can I do
    When your eyes keep saying
    That you love me too
    I know if I lose you
    Not a dream will I have left
    I don't want to cheat dear
    But I can't help myself
    (Both)
    Don't let me cross over
    Love's cheating line
    You belong to another
    And can never be mine
    I know one step closer
    Would be heaven divine
    Don't let me cross over
    Love's cheating line
    Don't let me cross over
