Off My Line

I've been thinking lately how to get you off my line

Don't seem all that easy, but it feels alright

I've gotten rid of expectations that I used to have

And we don't get along, oh, it really ain't that bad, yeah

Somewhere in between the blue and the red

"This is temporary," that's all she said now

Someday things may be a little better than before

All these mysteries and they're knocking at my door

Alone in my room, I lay awake and dream

Sleeping half awake, I got to try to explain

That I don't need your love and it means this much to me

I don't need your love, woman, won't you see

That I'm somewhere in between the blue and the red?

"This is temporary," that's all she said now

Someday things may be a little better than before

All these mysteries and they're knocking at my door

She must not realize

What this means to me

I figured out her disguise

Hey, mama, I'm not dreaming, nah

I've been thinking lately how to get you off my line

Don't seem all that easy, but it feels alright

I got rid of expectations that I used to have

And we don't get along, no, it really ain't that bad, yeah

Somewhere in between the blue and the red

"This is temporary," that's all she said now

Someday things may be a little better than before

All these mysteries and they're knocking at my door
