Space Between The Lines
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's a little sparrow singin' in a ring around around the sun
And I'm right here on the shoulder just stickin' out my thumb
No one tells a bird to fly, they just jump and spread their wings
They fly south in the winter and then they come back in the spring
And I'm right back where I started in the space between the lines
I come expecting nothing but what I find
I don't follow others' footsteps, I'm the wind between the pines
I only wish that I could stay here in the space between the lines
There's an angel in the dessert and an island in the sand
And I'm right here on the shoulder so I'll get there when I can
No one tells a bird to fly they just jump and spread their wings
It was time for me to travel until I found my song to sing
And I'm right back where I started in the space between the lines
I come expecting nothing but what I find
I don't follow other's footsteps, I'm the wind between the pines
I only wish that I could stay here in the space between the lines
