Perfume in my shirt Puts me in the past Too tough to be without her But too afraid to ask Here I am again, stuck in the middle (x2) Too young to settle down Too old to be in bars It’s hard to take it easy It’s easy to be hard Here I am again, stuck in the middle (x4) Forgive me, I am building my ship as it sells How do I become who I wanna be while still remaining myself Deeper, lover, hold me I don’t know where he is gone Too tired to be famous Too vain to be unknown Here I am again, stuck in the miiiddle (x4)
