johnnie taylor - i can read between the lines lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
before i turn the page and leave the past behind
i would like to state my case and reveal some thoughts of mine
may i say that losing you is gonna be a heavy blow
but in your eyes, they tell me, and they’re lettin’ me know
the look that said you love me is gone

[chorus]
i can read between the lines
when i call, you’re never in
i can read between the lines
as i watch the end begin

[verse 2]
seems like the same old story
’cause life’s an open book
one can say so many words with just a simple look
i can see that distant smile upon your face
whenever he walks out the door
you wanna leave the place
now, if you just can’t seem to tell me what’s wrong
i want you to know

[chorus]
i can read between the lines
i’m prepared to walk away
i can read, i can read it, between the lines
before you plan a chance to say: “it’s over”

[bridge]
don’t send me cards or letters or notes of sympathy
for i grew stronger when i posessed all the love that you gave to me
now the time has come, and i don’t have to run you down
’cause i’ve got myself together, headed for the final countdown
i can read it, ’cause my heart tells me
i can read it, ’cause your arms are tellin’ me
i can see the signs

[chorus]
i can read between the lines, oh don’t you know
i can see between the lines, listen honey

[bridge]
don’t send me no cards or letters or notes of sympathy
i grew strong when i posessed all the love that you gave to me
but you can’t seem to tell me what is wrong

[chorus]
i can read, i can read between the lines
so, it’s plain for me to see
i can read between the lines
and i know you’re leaving me

[outro]
i can read, i can read it
i can see the signs
i can read
before you turn and walk away
i can read, oh yeah, between the lines
and, i know what you’re gonna say
i can read, oh i can see the signs
i can read, i can read, i can read it
