Between the Lines - Janis Ian[00:00:00]
Written by:Janis Ian[00:00:01]
There's never much to say between the moments of[00:00:06]
Our games and repartee[00:00:11]
There's never much to read between the lines of[00:00:16]
What we need and what we'll take[00:00:20]
There's never much to talk about or say aloud[00:00:25]
But say it anyway[00:00:30]
Of holidays and yesterdays and broken dreams[00:00:35]
That somehow slipped away[00:00:40]
In books and magazines of how to be and what to see[00:00:48]
While you are being[00:00:53]
Before and after photographs teach how to pass[00:00:57]
From reaching to believing[00:01:01]
We live beyond our means on other people's dreams[00:01:06]
And that's succeeding[00:01:11]
Between the lines of photographs I've seen the past[00:01:15]
It isn't pleasing[00:01:20]
So strike another match we'll have another cup of wine[00:01:26]
And dance until the evening's dead of too much song and time[00:01:31]
There's never much to talk about or read between the lines[00:01:36]
Of what we dream about when we're apart[00:01:40]
And no one's looking on to say you're mine[00:01:43]
It was a good year then it was a good year then we all remember[00:01:51]
The time you threw the looking glass and seemed a fool or very clever[00:02:00]
Don't spoil it all I can't recall a time when you were[00:02:09]
Struck without an answer[00:02:13]
We'll live a quiet peaceful time between the lines and go together[00:02:17]
And I'm striking up the band to play our last hurrah[00:02:27]
We'll dance until we've killed another evening off[00:02:33]
Don't think of anyone but me I'll have no lovers on the side[00:02:37]
Tonight is all we've ever dreamed about for once let's get it right[00:02:42]
We'll go down flying in the end[00:02:47]
Through another bottle in between the lines[00:02:49]
I'll go down like a ship of state[00:02:56]
Let's be gracious now between the lines[00:02:59]
