John Fogerty - Between The Lines lyrics

Between the lines, that's wond'rin'
What to say, when you ain't sayin' nothin'
Between the lines
That's thinkin' about the silence that
Hides behind your smile between the lines
That's walkin' on eggshells that
Whisper keep your footing
Between the lines, that's watchin'
What you're doin', pretendin' to be blind

The truth is just a shadow
You can never pin it down
And the words are always hollow
Never yes or no
They're in the middle ground

Between the lines! between the lines!
Between the lines! between the lines!
Between the lines between the lines
Between the lines, that's tryin'
To guess the meanin'
When there ain't none to begin with
Between the lines
That's waitin' for the warlord to
Drop the other shoe

Between the lines
That's wond'rin' why the answer
Is just another question between the lines
That's thinkin' about the shotgun that's
Lookin' straight at you

I was just a shadow, and I never made a sound
But how can you be livin'
When you're just standin' there
On the middle ground

Between the lines! between the lines!
Between the lines! between the lines!
Between the lines between the lines
Between the lines, that's tryin'
To guess the meanin'
When there ain't none to begin with
Between the lines
That's waitin' for the warlord to
Drop the other shoe

Between the lines! between the lines!
Between the lines! between the lines!
Between the lines! between the lines!
Between the lines! between the lines!

Between the lines
