Girl, I got your letter, telling me you're coming home tonight
The lines were sweet and tender, signed with all your love
Pretty words to make me feel alright
Verse
Then I read it over, I got the feeling you're not completely mine
I held it to my chest, where you always rest
And I cried, 'cause I can read between the lines
Between the lines I see you're making believe
But I can't help it, I still want you
Between the lines it's plain, you're playing that old game,
But I still love you and I can't change
Verse
Baby, I'll be waiting at the downtown station right on time
Reaching out to hold you the way I always do
I'll pretend that you are only mine
And while I'm loving you
I can't read between the lines
Coda
While I'm loving you
I can't read between the lines
