Middle Ground Lyrics
musician: Mary Chapin Carpenter
(Mary Chapin Carpenter)
For years shes lived on her own In a corner of the city Twice a year she gets back home Playing catch-up with the family She tells her folks what they need to know Her mother says shes much too thin Her sisters ask about her beaus Her dad inquires hows business been
Shes 33 this time around Shes always been real good at listening Her sense of humor never lets her down Except sometimes theres something missing
Hey middle ground A place between up and down She could be safe and sound Oh to know middle ground
For years shes been on her guard Shes kind of tense around the shoulders She wonders why she works so hard She counts the days til they promote her Shell take a weekend now and then To stay in bed and watch the reruns Shell turn the phone off when guilt sets in But Sunday always kind of leaves her let down
Hey middle ground A place between up and down She could be safe and sound Oh to know middle ground
She gave her heart away one time And says that she hasnt seen it since Loves a puzzle in her mind The pieces match but dont quite fit
And these days run thick or thin It never rains or else its pouring All her single friends are men She thinks married girls are so damn boring
Hey middle ground A place between up and down She could be safe and sound Oh to know middle ground
Mary Chapin Carpenter - Middle Ground Lyrics
