Between the Lines

He walked up on stage with his guitar
Said I'd like to sing this here song for you
But it was written by a woman about a man

I didn't change the lyrics its so beautiful that way it is
So you don't think bad things of me I really had to tell this
If you read between the linesI don't play that wayI don't want you to think that I am gay

Read between the lines

She walked up on stage, sat down at the piano
Said I'd like to play this here song for you
But it was written by an African about his home land

I didn't change the music its so beautiful the way it is
So you don't think wrongly of me
I really had to tell this

If you read between the lines
While you're stepping back
I don't want you to think that I am black

People have no choices 'bout the colour of their skin
And showing one another love has never been a sin
If you need to tell us all that you love Jill not Jack
You�re just as prejudice as if you told us you�re not black

Read between the lines
You�ve got to open up your mind
