In The Middle Of It All - Nick Lowe

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

I saw you there

Fellow dies with no one there to care for him

Wondered what the world is like outside his room he’s living in

A normal man that dressed himself in women’s threads

He remembered every word, her face, her body in the shade

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

I saw you there

Sorrow;

the unpredictable has found a hand to hold

Absent into the fog coming home

Maelstrom;

you are my only god

Absent into the fog, I succumb to your every want

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

I saw you there

She’s the one that everybody marvels at

Delicate with her voice and flowers strung across her head

She’s the one that everybody notices

She thinks about an older friend, his face, his body in her bed

Sorrow;

the unrequited lust that follows everyone

Absent into the fog coming home

Maelstrom;

my undecided trust

Absent into the fog, I succumb to your every want

I wasn’t ready for this

Been strung out looking for a signal that was never there

I wasn’t ready for this

Suspicion reaching down to touch my fingertips again

Sorrow;

the celebration halts, the blinding lights are gone

Absent into the fog coming home

Maelstrom;

my love for you is strong

Absent into the fog, I succumb to your every want

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all

And in the middle of it all
