Just a Line

The way you threw out the line
Was subtle and graceful and I
I didn't notice, I was too focused
A casual curve that describes
Heaven and earth and all that divides
And then you sighed and kind of apologized
I time things get so tangled and I
I lose perspective, I destabilize
So sometimes, it's just a line

What was so great about the old days anyways
Who wants their heart broke by the radio
I prefer these days, in so many ways
At least the top 40's predictable

Way back then the pop stars all sang sad songs
All the best ones sang the sad songs, remember then
Oh girls just wanna have fun
But I thought the best songs were always the sad ones

Oh girls just wanna have fun
But I thought the best songs
Were always the sad ones
