《Between A Laugh And A Tear(1997/Live In Bellmont Mall Studios)》歌词

[00:00:00] Between A Laugh And A Tear (1997/Live In Bellmont Mall Studios) - John Mellencamp

[00:00:06] When paradise is no longer fit for you to live in

[00:00:10] And your adolescent dreams are gone

[00:00:16] Through the days you feel a little used up

[00:00:20] And you don't know where

[00:00:22] Your energy's gone wrong

[00:00:25] It's just your soul feelin' a little downhearted

[00:00:30] Sometimes life is too ridiculous to live

[00:00:35] You count your friends all on one finger

[00:00:39] I know it sounds crazy just the way that we live

[00:00:43] Between a laugh and a tear

[00:00:49] Smile in the mirror as you walk by

[00:00:53] Between a laugh and a tear

[00:00:59] And that's as good as it can get for us

[00:01:01] And there ain't no reason to stop tryin'

[00:01:14] When this cardboard town can

[00:01:16] No longer amuse you

[00:01:19] You see through everything and

[00:01:20] Nothin' seems worthwhile

[00:01:24] And hypocrite used to be such a big word to you

[00:01:29] And it don't seem to mean anything to you now

[00:01:34] Just try to live each and every precious moment

[00:01:39] Don't be discouraged by the future forget the past

[00:01:43] That's old advise but it'll be good to you

[00:01:48] I know there's a balance see it when I swing past

[00:01:52] Between a laugh and a tear

[00:01:58] Smile in the mirror as you walk by

[00:02:02] Between a laugh and a tear

[00:02:07] And that's as good as it can get for us

[00:02:10] And there ain't no reason to stop tryin'

[00:02:28] When paradise can no longer amuse you

[00:02:34] You see through everything and

[00:02:35] Nothin' seems worthwhile

[00:02:38] When this paradise can no longer amuse you
