I Cannot Read Between the Lines

I'm drinking tequila in the morning

I haven't been sleeping through the night

Now I do not know just what I'm feeling

Now I cannot read between the lines

I met her in the morning on a Sunday

I met her in the pouring summer rain

Now I cannot tell her what I'm feeling

Now I don't remember her name

I got no reason to run away

I got no reason to stay

I try so hard

But now I cannot read between the lines

I'm drinking tequila in the morning

I intend to keep her on my mind

As long as I don't know just where my mind is

I don't have to read between the lines

I got no reason to run away

I got no reason to stay

I try so hard

But now I cannot read between the lines

For all the lover's stories I've forgotten

For all the summer mornings I can't face

I know my life is falling into pieces

All the pieces fall back into place
