tracy chapman – telling stories Lyric

aus dem Album telling stories

There is fiction in the space between - The lines on your page of memories
Write it down but it doesn't mean - You're not just telling stories

There is fiction in the space between - You and reality
You will do and say anything - To make your everyday life seem less mundane
There is fiction in the space between -You and me

There's a science fiction in the space between -You and me
A fabrication of a grand scheme - Where I am the scary monster
I eat the city and as I leave the scene - In my spaceship I am laughing
In your remembrance of your bad dream - There's no one but you standing

Leave the pity and the blame - For the ones who do not speak
You write the words to get respect and compassion - And for posterity
You write the words and make believe -There is truth in the space between

There is fiction in the space between - You and everybody
Give us all what we need - Give us one more sad sordid story
But in the fiction of the space between - Sometimes a lie is the best thing

Sometimes a lie is the best thing..
the best thing..
is the best thing..
