Long Dividing LineLong Dividing Line(© Words and Music by Larry and Terry Tutor) If you don’t believe I’m outta here, Count how far I am away Subtract it from the lonely nights That decided where we’d stay Multiply it by the number of ways I couldn’t make you mine Both one regret, a finite set on this long dividing line Well it goes straight down the middle and it turns just a little Till you can’t tell where you’ve been Then it’s all uphill till you know that we’ll Never be this way again There’s a runaway lane down each side to blame We both missed the signs Your way or mine we found our kind (both went blind) On this long dividing line, On this long dividing line With just a fraction of the truth We drew our own conclusions Both so leery of any theory That would have led to a solution Our sevens became our sixes, our elevens turned to nines When we laid down we lost that round On this long dividing line CHORUS Half the distance between us A little more than we both know Closer than we once believed A little farther as we go We’ll figure what we looked at and realize the cost Both so positively certain we could add this as a loss We’ll total our experience in some negative kind of way And the more we talk about it, the less we’ll have to say |
