From the recording Retrospective
Lyrics
Between the Lines
Almost daylight now the mission bell is ringing
You can hear it in the town
At the tavern there the peasants still are singing
One more time before they drown
On a dark and twisted road there comes a rider
With a fire in his eyes
Looking high and low, he wants just to be beside her
You can hear his lonely cries
Chorus
Call me and I will come running
Show me a sign
Tell me some more lies and I will follow
Hard to stay between the lines
Hard to stay between the lines
He remembers when they rode in the northern country
Like a wind across the land
Even then he know it could not last forever
Felt her slipping through his hands
Chorus
Now he rides alone the road is never ending
There’s no company he keeps
No one hears the simple message he is sending
And her memory never sleeps
