about

Sometimes we stare at things without knowing we're staring at things. Signs. Spots on walls. Sometimes we accidentally stare at people. My husband did this a while ago, sitting in a restaurant. At the end of his stare was a woman at a neighbouring table who was leafing through a journal. I drew his attention back, and he immediately launched into apologies. "I wasn't looking at her," he said. "I was looking at the space in between."

And all was forgiven.

THE SPACE BETWEEN
Music and Lyrics by Stacey Dowswell

Don’t mind me staring
It’s not that I care too much
Or that I see you seeing me
It’s just that you caught me
Caught in a moment
And I was lost in the space in between

CHORUS
In the space between
Where we can be we
And we can hold on to the brightness we’ve seen
In the space between
Where nothing else matters
And no one is watching except you and me

What does it matter
If the chaos outside
Comes crashing over
The walls we’ve contrived
In here we’re protected
In a blanked of stillness
In here we retreat; in here we can hide

CHORUS

BRIDGE
If I find you there will you meet my eye?
If I hold you there can we stop time?
CHORUS
