Read between the lines

(J Pereira)

Feels like when we talk

There’s different languages in use 

What I say and what you hear   

And what you miss and what I lose

Only you can make this work

Only work can make this right

truth gets in the way, I know

But can we make it right? 

You’ve got to read between the lines  

As you keep missing all the signs

You’ve got to read between the lines

So you and I can align

  

I know deep inside

There is a truth we can’t deny

If we took the time

Maybe we’d find the reasons why

Only we can make this work

Only we can make this right

Truth gets in the way, I know

But can we make it right?
