lyrics

Fine Line
© 2003, Sue Fink

You and me, baby, we go back for years
Still, I can’t say what lies in store
Sometimes we’re laughing, the next minute we’re in tears
Now someone’s headed for the door

Look out in the distance, there’s a line at the horizon
Separating heaven from the earth
One side of that line, the sun is slowly rising
The other side is darkness and dirt

And it’s a fine line
Separating black from gray
A fine line
What you’ll do and what you’ll say
A fine line
Should you leave or should you stay
It’s a fine line
And I’m hoping we don’t fall

Tree branch is broken, will it hold or will it crack?
Sometimes it all depends on you
Certain things spoken cannot be taken back
The devil likes to take his due

Look into your heart, there’s a line runs down the middle
Blood flows in, comes out the other side
Look into your thoughts, do they still waver just a little
Are feelings still alive, or have they died

And it’s a fine line
Between the happy and the sad
A fine line
Between the charmer and the cad
A fine line
The love we have, the love we had
It’s a fine line, baby
I’m hoping we don’t fall

The lovers on the tightrope
Take a step to neither side
There’s no room for mistakes
When there is no net open wide
Will they meet right in the middle
Or turn around and say they tried
Love extended… or love denied

And it’s a fine line
Between what’s funny and what’s mean
It’s a fine line
Between laughter and the scream
A fine line
Between the waking and the dream
We walk that line with no room in between
And I’m hoping we don’t fall…
I’m hoping we don’t fall

about

Sue Fink Chicago, Illinois

Chicago-based singer-songwriter Sue Fink enchants audiences with her whimsical perspective on the world. Her genre, “urban campfire cabaret,” is folk with a hint of jazz, a large dollop of humor, and a drop of sadness for good measure: think Christine Lavin, with a dash of Rickie Lee Jones, Melanie, and Nellie McKay. ... more
