Life in the Middle

Lyrics

[Verse 1] He's just a boy in America Nothing short of a perfect life And if, if you look in the candle light You'll see him, you'll see him He packed it up and away he went All for the life he wanted To pretend he is all alone Oh he needs it, he needs it [Chorus] I guess this is life in the middle of my left and right side I can't believe I am living in this story like a movie That keeps playing in my head, in the same direction I don't have a clue what I'm doing, but that's why I love it [Verse 2] She's just a girl on a subway A simple life and a coffee in her hand She has the world at her fingertips And she knows it, she knows it And when we met it was like a dream Been here before but a little blurry She said her name and my heart just stopped No way is it, can it be Is it you I have been looking for all my life [Chorus] I guess this is life in the middle of my left and right side I can't believe I am living in this story like a movie That keeps playing in my head, in the same direction I don't have a clue what I'm doing, but that's why I love it [Bridge] I'm just a boy in America I'm just a boy in America I'm just a boy in America I'm just a boy in America I'm just a boy in America I'm just a boy in America I'm just a boy in America I think maybe I'll lay down and die But something inside me tells me I just want to survive [Chorus] I guess this is life in the middle of my left and right side I can't believe I am living in this story like a movie That keeps playing in my head, in the same direction I don't have a clue what I'm doing but that's why I love it
