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 could never tell me forever
Look away when you see me reaching out for higher
I love the way you always know better
And I love the way you tell me I'm wrong when there's nothing to say
Hanging on the fence now
We're always somewhere in the middle
And I could never tell you I don't want love
We're always somewhere in the middle feet 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 it was everlasting
Hanging on the fence now
We're always somewhere in the middle
And I could never tell you I don't want love
We're always somewhere in the middle feet from our dreams
And how can I show you I love you?
Now that they put me above you
I never meant to make you feel little
But now we're just somewhere in the middle
Praying for direction
Waiting on the bench now
How could I not mention
I was always tempted
Always in the air now
Waiting till we come down
I could do it better, better baby
Hanging on the fence now
We're always somewhere in the middle
And I could never tell you I don't want love
We're always somewhere in the middle feet from our dreams
Hanging on the fence now
We're always somewhere in the middle
And I could never tell you I don't want love
You know I never meant to make you feel little
Now we're just somewhere in the middle
