"On The Line" lyrics
"On The Line"
Red Roof Inn, rain on the window
Free breakfast, an American cliche
The emptiness, distractions of hope
Mind wanders while I pretend to stay
Why do I give you the satisfaction of knowing I still care?
You only call when it's your love on the line
Room above me, they're having sex
With the TV up to drown out the noise
That's just like this world we're in
We cover up each truth with a void
Why do I give you the satisfaction of knowing I still care?
You only call when it's your love on the line
You only call when it's your love on the line
I've gotten used to moving on
Air fresheners dangling in my mirror
If you only knew how far I've gone
How far I'll go to avoid these tears
Still, I give you the satisfaction of knowing I still care
And you only call when it's your love on the line
You only call when it's your love on the line

Leave it...
Joy Williams - "Front Porch" There are no wrong roads
And no window stays closed
Love is always sad when it fades
But glass is better stained anyway
If never you find
What you're looking for
Come on back to the front porch

Hiss Golden Messenger - "Highland Grace" And then there came a stranger - call her Highland Grace
A rearranger
I'd been searching in the mirror, but seeing my own face didn't make it any clearer
I'd rage against the hard times while others...
Rose Cousins - "Freedom" This quiet is full, this quiet is loud
I'm sorting through what's left of us now
And I found freedom from what could have been
Freedom from the love you give
Freedom
Well I pride myself in letting...
