It's the great ideal But I hold too tight and I end up living in a world I feared You can read my mind quicker than I write it But I show my teeth Words dance on my tongue, but they don't come easy And they're hard to hear You're a river running fast and I jump right into it Can we meet in the middle? All I feel I never say You lay in the middle of the night, won't you turn my way? Can we meet in the middle? I go falling through the day I wait in the middle of the night for you to turn my way, ay I pretend, I pretend I'm so content, you know I'm no good at it I come again to the end On the bed, you know you're so good at it Can we meet in the middle? All I feel I never say You lay in the middle of the night, won't you turn my way? Can we meet in the middle? I go falling through the day I wait in the middle of the night for you to turn my way, way ♪ Can we meet in the middle? All that I feel that I never say You lay in the middle of the night, won't you turn my way? Can we meet in the middle? I go falling through the day I wait in the middle of the night for you to turn my way
