A thousand word to every picture
But where's the opening line?
A penny for your thoughts
Or can you spare the change of mind?
25 years of living, but where's the opening line?
Where's the melody and harmony
That telling me it's all right?

Several lovers and some heartache
But where's the opening line?
Where's the sad love song let her let me cry
I've said good-bye to some good friends
But where's the opening line?
Oh, I gotta a feeling that I'm reeling
In a hookless bunch of tangled lines

And no matter where you go
You're always dropping someone some kinda line

I'm just waiting for the one that's mine
Maybe something old that needs the dust shined
Maybe something grew cold separated by state lines
I'm sure you'll find sometimes
That you've been my opening line

A thousand words to say I'm sorry
but where's the opening line?
Where's the smile through the tears
that would tell me that we're alright
35 years of living and you are my opening line
I keep you inside to tell me that we're alright

Several lovers and some heartache
but where's the opening line?
Where's the sad love song let her let me cry
I've said good-bye to some good friends
but where's the opening line?
Oh, I gotta feeling that I'm reeling
in a hookless bunch of tangled lines

And no matter where you go
You're always dropping someone some kinda line

I'm just waiting for the one that's mine
Maybe something old that needs the dust shined
Maybe something grew cold separated by state lines
I'm sure you'll find sometimes that you've been my
Opening line

And no matter where you go
You're always dropping someone some kinda line

I'm just waiting for the one that's mine
Maybe something old that needs the dust shined
Maybe something grew cold separated by state lines
I'm sure you'll find sometimes that you've been my

And I'm just waiting for the one that's mine
Maybe something old that needs the dust shined
Maybe something grew cold separated by state lines
I'm sure sometimes you'll find that you've been my
Opening line!
