Broken White Line Lyrics - Singles - Kris Delmhorst

It's been four years since that day 

When the news fell from the sky 

You took until we meet again 

And turned it to goodbye 

And I hope that you won't rest in peace 

Because that would bore you right to tears 

You always made the richest feast 

Of the dangers and the fears 

It was almost fine, you were almost mine 

It was you and me and love made three on a broken white line 

Well, that night was long, there was one more song 

And then we were on our way 

Driving slow, no place to go 

And nothing more to say 

And the rain came down around that car 

Like we were underneath the sea 

In the back seat, almost drowning 

Holding on to me 

It was almost fine, you were almost mine 

And from town to town we chased it down on a broken white line 

Looking in your eyes 

Was just like staring at the sun 

Always thought that I'd go blind 

Or end up all undone 

And in the end I turned my face away 

From where you shone so bright 

Now I wake in all this darkness 

Crying for a little of your light 

It's been four years and now I find 

I've been living all this time 

I built myself a little world 

Of rhythm and of rhyme 

But sometimes I take your picture 

And I turn it to the wall 

Because you are still a cliff 

And baby, I still know how to fall 

It was almost fine, you were almost mine 

But day by day you slipped away down that broken white line 

It was you and me and love made three
