Every Line - David Knopfler

In every line he speaks

I spoke to you

«Every time he weeps»

I wrote for you

How do you sleep

When the night’s so blue?

Can a heart refused

Still soothe you?

If you ever knew

My special one

There was only you

You were the only one

It’s hard to do

What has to be done

D’you ever miss me

Do you?

How can you betray

This foreign son?

Please don’t say

That this was wrong

There’s no way

With foreign tongue

That I would not still woo you

And it’s a heartless joke

When we had every chance

And now you choke

To see your frog prince dance

And the heart you broke

With your brave romance

This heart could not accuse you

This heart could not include you

In every line he speaks

I spoke to you

And every line she reads

I wrote for you

When I’m asleep I dream

I’m holding you

Can’t the heart you broke

Still move you?

Can the heart you broke

Refuse you?
