I used to watch the evening news And all I saw was reds and blues And we both know it all comes down to green Standing on the edge of town The sun ain't coming up or down And we're all stuck here somewhere in between Oh oh oh Out here in the middle Oh oh oh Familiar ground I fear Oh oh oh Love ain't such a riddle If we can't give a little Then we can't get there Can't get there from here Working hard and paying dues But in the end you have to choose You lead you follow or get left behind Sometimes I can't sleep at night The markets down and money's tight How much do you pay for peace of mind Oh oh oh Out here in the middle Oh oh oh Familiar ground I fear Oh oh oh Love ain't such a riddle If we cant give a little Then we can't get there Can't get there from here We all live in a world that's so demanding All we want is love and understanding Oh oh oh Out here in the middle Oh oh oh Familiar ground I fear Oh oh oh Love ain't such a riddle If we cant give a little Then we can't get there Can't get there from here
