There is a Fine Fine Line

Going to the theatre always sweeps me away.

I love the energy-charged atmosphere, the smell of parquet and cushioned seats, and being in a place where dreams are lived out and fulfilled. I love that one moment when the audience cheers and shouts, “Encore”, “Encore” like our lives hung on to just one final song, and that nothing else beyond the walls of the theatre matters.

And “Seriously Hossan” was nothing short of pure magical lyrical brilliance. Both funny and deeply personal at the same time, the songs captivated the audience. It is amazing, the way a song unfolds with lyrics that put breadths on hold.

Of the many songs he sang tonight, I especially like this one by Avenue Q:



There's a fine, fine line between a lover and a friend;
There's a fine, fine line between reality and pretend;
And you never know 'til you reach the top if it was worth the uphill climb.
There's a fine, fine line between love
And a waste of time.
There's a fine, fine line between a fairy tale and a lie;
And there's a fine, fine line between "You're wonderful" and "Goodbye."
I guess if someone doesn't love you back it isn't such a crime,
But there's a fine, fine line between love
And a waste of your time.
And I don't have the time to waste on you anymore.
I don't think that you even know what you're looking for.
For my own sanity, I've got to close the door
And walk away...
Oh...
There's a fine, fine line between together and not
And there's a fine, fine line between what you wanted and what you got.
You gotta go after the things you want while you're still in your prime...
There's a fine, fine line between love
And a waste of time.
