Mary Chapin Carpenter - Middle Ground слова песни
(Mary Chapin Carpenter)For years she`s lived on her ownIn a corner of the cityTwice a year she gets back homePlaying catch-up with the familyShe tells her folks what they need to knowHer mother says she`s much too thinHer sisters ask about her beauHer dad inquires, how`s business beenShe`s thirty-three this time aroundShe`s always been real good at listeningHer sense of humor never lets her downExcept sometimes there`s something missingHey, middle groundA place between up and downShe could be safe and soundOh, to know middle groundFor years she`s been on her guardShe`s kind of tense around the shouldersShe wonders why she works so hardShe counts the days `til they promote herShe`ll take a weekend now and thenTo stay in bed and watch the rerunsShe`ll turn the phone off when guilt sets inBut Sunday always kinda leaves her let downHey, middle ground; a place between up and downShe could be safe and sound; oh, to know middle groundShe gave her heart away one time, and says that she hasn`t seen it sinceLove`s a puzzle in her mind; the pieces match, but don`t quite fit; hey...And these days run thick or thinIt never rains, or else it`s pouringAll her single friends are menShe thinks married girls are so damn boringHey, middle ground; a place between up and downShe could be safe and sound; oh, to know middle groundHey, middle ground; a place between up and downShe could be safe and sound; oh, to know middle groundOh, to know middle ground; oh, to know middle ground
