I'm a sailor lost in the ocean
Of the salt that fills your veins
And your face is the prow of my vessel
As I cling to her remains
I've given blood to the point of exhaustion
To save a thousand helpless lives
And as I look at the face of my doctor
I'm staring into your eyes, I've seen it on your face
(It's hard to find, between the lines)
I've seen it on your face, girl, deep between the lines
Yes I've seen it on your face, girl, deep inside your eyes
I'm on a high wire strung between buildings
Above the valley of your soul
And your face is the net of devotion
But the net has got a hole
I've seen it on your face
(It's hard to find, between the lines)
I've seen it on your face, girl, deep between the lines
Yes I've seen it on your face, girl, deep inside your eyes
I'm a Catholic giving confession
At the altar of your skin
And your face is the Holy Madonna
As I'm counting up my sins, I've seen it on your face
(It's hard to find, between the lines)
I've seen it on your face, girl, everyone can see
But when I look into your face, girl, it gets the best of me
