Pam Tillis - A Whisper And A Scream lyrics

There's a tomcat in the alley
Scarin' up a fight
There's a mother softly kissing
Her little one goodnight
There's peace and then there's chaos
Reality and dreams
We're all trying to strike a balance
Between a whisper and a scream

Sometimes I need attention when
You need left alone
Sometimes you feel like clinging when
I feel like being gone
But love me soft and tender and
We'll make the rafters ring
As long as we meet somewhere between
A whisper and a scream

Well, I know you'll be listening
And you know I'll be there
Between a whisper and a scream
We'll find a prayer
Well I used to blow up easy and
Put my fist right through a wall

You were shut down like a holiday
Not feeling much at all
But we met there at the
Crossroad goin' to extremes
Thank God we found each other between
A whisper and a scream
Somehow we found each other between
A whisper and a scream
