You're the line in the sand

Hi,

Extracted from a song,

You're falling star
You're the getaway car
You're the line in the sand
When I go to far

What does the third line which says "You're the line in the sand" mean?

Thanks in advance,

You're the line in the sand when I go too far

IMO, the line in the sand serves as a guide, since he is going too far, so he knows what to follow when he goes back... I hope I get it right... But whatever the meaning is, I just fell inlove with the song..

"To draw a line in the sand" means to set a limit beyond which things will not be accepted.
So, "a line in the sand" is a point beyond which one will not go.

I think here it means "you stop me when I go too far", "you won't let me go too far".
