Standing In The Middle

We tried for something better, now we just get by

Knowing we may never get it right

If we don't spend our days

Steppin' round each other

Then we find new ways to fight

About the weather

Every night I lay in bed

Thinking 'bout someone else instead

'Cause who you are isn't who you said

Now we're stuck here

Standin' in the middle of a mess we've made

It's all to little too late

You call your mother, I write a song

We've come to agree that we can't get along

Why can't I say goodbye

Why can't I say goodbye

You changed and all you wanted was for me to change

Well, why couldn't you just stay the same

Now all I see are piles of dirty dishes

And a laundry list of all our wasted wishes

Every morning when I wake

I see your angel face

And I know you're dreaming of a better place

I guess I'm waiting on you

To come and tell me we're through

But as time goes by, it gets a little easier

To hide from the truth

Now you wrote a poem, I called your mother

We still disagree but you know we'll stay together

Now we're stuck here

Standin' in the middle of a mess we've made

It's all to little too late

It's the end of the call

The end of the song

We still disagree and we can't get along

Why can't I say goodbye

Why can't I say goodbye
