Mat Kearney - In the Middle lyrics
[Mat Kearney - In the Middle lyrics]
I meant it all and every part
And every word right from the start
I'll never let this love fall in the middle
'Cause you know you broke the hardest part
You know you broke the hardest heart
I'll never let this love fall in the middle
Through it all
Fifteen years old in a sea of blank faces
Swimming bold against a stream that's
Mocking as it races in these halls
Mountain high under a tangerine sky
Crack a smile just to hide
The race that's inside
Eighteen years old bags packed and
A pass for the rail
One last look at the past as
It drowns in the hail one in a million
Still I keep feeling you keep me from a fall
A world to lose coming back with you tall
Through it all
No parachutes or safety nets here
One foot on the water to face these fears
I'm coming out strong like I can't be wrong
I said "Hey, I won't fall in the middle"
Twenty five here I am with freshman LPs
One life to write one, two years to repeat
Behind a curtain
Uncertain if an encore's in store
Tuck my shoulder like a soldier
To knock down the door
Thirty something here I'm running with
Kisses for one girl
These scars upon my sleeve still
Casting out my pearls
Throw each stone microphone like
It's my last turn with a kiss to the abyss
And watch the ripples return through it all
No parachutes or safety nets here
One foot on the water to face these fears
I'm coming out strong like I can't be wrong
I said "Hey, I won't fall in the middle"
I said I'm gonna be alright
I'm gonna be alright with you by my side
I said I'm gonna be alright
I'm gonna be alright
With you through this fight through it all
No parachutes or safety nets here
One foot on the water to face these fears
I'm coming out strong like I can't be wrong
I said "Hey, I won't fall in the middle"
I meant it all and every part
And every word right from the start
I'll never let this love fall in the middle
Through it all
And every word right from the start
I'll never let this love fall in the middle
'Cause you know you broke the hardest part
You know you broke the hardest heart
I'll never let this love fall in the middle
Through it all
Fifteen years old in a sea of blank faces
Swimming bold against a stream that's
Mocking as it races in these halls
Mountain high under a tangerine sky
Crack a smile just to hide
The race that's inside
Eighteen years old bags packed and
A pass for the rail
One last look at the past as
It drowns in the hail one in a million
Still I keep feeling you keep me from a fall
A world to lose coming back with you tall
Through it all
No parachutes or safety nets here
One foot on the water to face these fears
I'm coming out strong like I can't be wrong
I said "Hey, I won't fall in the middle"
Twenty five here I am with freshman LPs
One life to write one, two years to repeat
Behind a curtain
Uncertain if an encore's in store
Tuck my shoulder like a soldier
To knock down the door
Thirty something here I'm running with
Kisses for one girl
These scars upon my sleeve still
Casting out my pearls
Throw each stone microphone like
It's my last turn with a kiss to the abyss
And watch the ripples return through it all
No parachutes or safety nets here
One foot on the water to face these fears
I'm coming out strong like I can't be wrong
I said "Hey, I won't fall in the middle"
I said I'm gonna be alright
I'm gonna be alright with you by my side
I said I'm gonna be alright
I'm gonna be alright
With you through this fight through it all
No parachutes or safety nets here
One foot on the water to face these fears
I'm coming out strong like I can't be wrong
I said "Hey, I won't fall in the middle"
I meant it all and every part
And every word right from the start
I'll never let this love fall in the middle
Through it all
