verse 1 The day you're born they sign a piece of paper That will certify the date of your birth And the day you die they sign another Just to prove you've gone back to the earth And between those two pieces of paper There is the truth that is so hard to find And the story of your life is written ', but You must read in between the lines verse 2 Now when you're young you think it don't matter If you leap before you look But those old folks are wiser and sadder From the chances that they took Now when your chance comes along, you must take it Just be careful and take your time And the chances are good you will make it If you can read in between the lines Bridge And when someone tells you they love you And no one has ever loved you more It is wise to stop and consider how many Times they might have said that before Because when love leaves you cryin' Then you will surely lose your mind And you might have known love was lying If you could read in between the lines verse 4 And when someone tells you they love you And no one has ever loved you more It is wise to stop and consider how many Times they might have said that before Because when love leaves you cryin' Then you will surely lose your mind And you might have known love was lying If you could read in between the lines
