prelude - platinum blonde lyrics

well she wanted to go on the stage
no one could stop her, she felt like she was in a cage
her mind was made up, her heart was set on it
but she wouldn’t listen

so her father worked every night
her mother was crying when the train pulled out of sight
when the letter arrived, they could hardly wait, cause it read

(daughter)
mother and father i’ve met a young man
who thinks he can help me with all of my plans
he’s going to give me a start it’s a very big part as a platinum blonde

so they waited and waited for weeks
when no word arrived the tears ran down her cheeks
but when it finally came they felt somehow to blame cause it read

(daughter)
mother and father i’m doing alright
i’m going away for a while so don’t write
it’s not for the money you know it’s a respectable show called the platinum blonde

can’t you read between the lines
can’t you read between the lines
can’t you read between the lines
can’t you read between the lines
so he packed his bag and got on the train
told his wife he was off to see his brother in maine
when he got into town, he looked for the show called the platinum blonde
through the red lights and smoke on the stage
he watched his daughter perform and in shame and rage
he turned his head away, he could almost hear say

(daughter)
father oh father you’ve got it all wrong
i like it right here this is where i belong
it might not be shakespeare but i’m happier here as a platinum blonde

can’t you read between the lines
can’t you read between the lines
can’t you read between the lines
can’t you read between the lines

so he waited behind the stage door
when his daughter came out the first thing she saw
was the gun in his hand, a flash of light
and then nothing more

his wife called him up on the phone
she sounded so happy and he felt so alone
what’s that you say? we got a letter today
and it read
(daughter)
mother and father i’m on my way home
i’ve missed you so much and i’ve been so alone
i always knew you were right, this is
my very last night as a platinum blonde

can’t you read between the lines
can’t you read between the lines
can’t you read between the lines
can’t you read between the lines

can’t you read, between the lines
can’t you read between, between the lines
can’t you read, between the lines
can’t you read between, between the lines
can’t you read, between the lines
can’t you read between, between the lines
can’t you read, between the lines
can’t you read between, between the lines
can’t you read, between the lines
can’t you read between, between the lines
can’t you read, between the lines
can’t you read between, between the lines
can’t you read, between the lines
can’t you read between, between the lines
can’t you read, between the lines
can’t you read between, between the lines
