Intro : (x2)

I re ad by li ne by li ne by line

S ome words o f yours some words o f mine

Some sentimen ts ar e best forgo t

S ome letters read t hen folded shut

T he profile on the p ostage s tamp

I traced i t by my read ing la mp

R emembered w hen I'd sit and wait

T hen marked our parting from that date

I re ad by line by line by line

T hat old s arcastic Val enti ne

T hat you den ied you'd sent to me

T hen took it back

It's a tho ught that we shared a careless phrase

A cu rse or a joke some words of praise

B ut I didn't write

Did you wonder w hy?

It was the e asiest way to say "Goodbye"

You'll s ee my p hoto bes ide the ar ticle

"That's just som e guy I used to kn ow

I was neve r his

He was alway s mine

Bu t I wrote him off by line by line"

By li ne by li ne by li ne by li ne by li ne by li ne

By li ne by li ne
