The Middle

One more try

We can only hang on for so long

But we won't rise

Someone's always somewhere in the middle

And I know why you can never tell me forever

Look away when you see me reaching out for higher

Higher love, ooh higher love is not better

And I love the way you tell me you're wrong when there's nothing to say, oh

Hanging on the fence now

We're always somewhere in the middle

And I can never tell you I don't want love

You're always somewhere in the middle

Free from our dreams

Hanging on the fence now

We're always somewhere in the middle

And I can never tell you I don't want love

You're always somewhere in the middle

Free from our dreams

Watch how high, use your hand to steady out the ladder

But you won't try, you don't wanna stay there in the shadow

Eye to eye when you used to stand here right beside me

Now we take time, no one ever said what's everlasting

Hanging on the fence now

We're always somewhere in the middle

And I can never tell you I don't want love

You're always somewhere in the middle

Free from our dreams

Hanging on the fence now

We're always somewhere in the middle

And I can never tell you I don't want love

You're always somewhere in the middle

Free from our dreams

How can I show you I love you?

Now that they put me above you

They're enough to make you feel little

But now we're just somewhere in the middle

Waiting for direction, waiting on the bench now

How could I not mention I was always tempted

Always in the end, now wait until we calm down

I can do it better, better baby

Hanging on the fence now

We're always somewhere in the middle

And I can never tell you I don't want love

You're always somewhere in the middle

Free from our dreams

Hanging on the fence now

We're always somewhere in the middle

And I can never tell you I don't want love

You know I never meant to make you feel little, little

Now it's time to start somewhere in the middle, middle
