Girl I got your letter telling me you're coming home tonight
   The lines were sweet and tender signed with all your love
   Pretty words to make me feel alright
  
   Then I read it over I got the feeling you're not completely mine
   I held it to my chest, where you always rest
   And I cried 'cos I can read between the lines
  
   Between the lines I see you're making believe
   But I can't help it, I still want you
   Between the lines it's plain you're playing that old game
   But I still love you, and I can't change
  
   Baby I'll be waiting at the downtown station right on time
   Reaching out to hold you, the way I always do
   I'll pretend that you are only mine
  
   And while I'm loving you I can't read between the lines
   While I'm loving you I can't read between the lines
