《Between the Lines(Remaster)》歌词

[00:00:00] Between the Lines - Janis Ian

[00:00:01] Written by：Janis Ian

[00:00:06] There's never much to say between the moments of

[00:00:11] Our games and repartee

[00:00:16] There's never much to read between the lines of

[00:00:20] What we need and what we'll take

[00:00:25] There's never much to talk about or say aloud

[00:00:30] But say it anyway

[00:00:35] Of holidays and yesterdays and broken dreams

[00:00:40] That somehow slipped away

[00:00:48] In books and magazines of how to be and what to see

[00:00:53] While you are being

[00:00:57] Before and after photographs teach how to pass

[00:01:01] From reaching to believing

[00:01:06] We live beyond our means on other people's dreams

[00:01:11] And that's succeeding

[00:01:15] Between the lines of photographs I've seen the past

[00:01:20] It isn't pleasing

[00:01:26] So strike another match we'll have another cup of wine

[00:01:31] And dance until the evening's dead of too much song and time

[00:01:36] There's never much to talk about or read between the lines

[00:01:40] Of what we dream about when we're apart

[00:01:43] And no one's looking on to say you're mine

[00:01:51] It was a good year then it was a good year then we all remember

[00:02:00] The time you threw the looking glass and seemed a fool or very clever

[00:02:09] Don't spoil it all I can't recall a time when you were

[00:02:13] Struck without an answer

[00:02:17] We'll live a quiet peaceful time between the lines and go together

[00:02:27] And I'm striking up the band to play our last hurrah

[00:02:33] We'll dance until we've killed another evening off

[00:02:37] Don't think of anyone but me I'll have no lovers on the side

[00:02:42] Tonight is all we've ever dreamed about for once let's get it right

[00:02:47] We'll go down flying in the end

[00:02:49] Through another bottle in between the lines

[00:02:56] I'll go down like a ship of state

[00:02:59] Let's be gracious now between the lines
