In Between Poses

Story Behind The Song

"This was written at a time when I felt bombarded by people's opinions about how I should present myself as an artist - and as a human being, really. We're 'on' so much of the time, and it struck me that the times resting between those moments are usually the most honest and beautiful. I also thought about my happiest moments, at home in my pajamas, and with that, it turned into a love song. If there's any song that captures how I truly feel inside, it's 'Poses'. And I love what Jeff brought to the table on this song -- he really stripped it to its essence."

Song Length 3:51 Genre Pop - Rock
Tempo Medium Slow (91 - 110) Lead Vocal Female Vocal

Lyrics

IN BETWEEN POSES
words & music by jen foster 2003

A certain way you dance around
And crack a smile and break me down
After the third act when you come home
You turn it off and turn me on

When you think no one?s watching
When you?re taken by the moment
When you forget what you?re thinking and you say what you really feel
When you?re in between poses
And when your laughter takes over
That?s when you?re floating with the angels, that?s when you?re floating with the angels

For such a softie, you try so hard
You get so angry that you?re not a star
But if you could show them what you show me
In your pajamas acting like you?re three

When you think no one?s watching
When you?re taken by the moment
When you forget what you?re thinking and you say what you really feel
When you?re in between poses
And when your laughter takes over
That?s when you?re floating with the angels, that?s when you?re floating with the angels

And when you laugh a little too loud
And spill your coffee all over
And when you?re singing in the shower
I see your cup runneth over
And chocolate sundaes make you smile
And Monday morning, stay awhile?you?re beautiful

When you think no one?s watching
When you?re taken by the moment
When you forget what you?re thinking and you say what you really feel
When you?re in between poses
And when your laughter takes over
That?s when you?re floating with the angels, that?s when you?re floating with the angels
So high above this world ? you?re beautiful?
