Stuck In The Middle With You
Well, I don't know why I came here tonight
I got the feeling that something ain't right
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
And I'm wondering how I'll get down those stairs
Clowns to left of me
Jokers to the right
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you
Yes, I'm stuck in the middle with you
And I'm wondering what it is I should do
It's so hard to keep this smile from my face
Losing control, yeah I'm all over the place
Clowns to left of me
Jokers to the right
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you
Well, you started off with nothing
And you're proud that you're a self-made man
And your friends they all come crawling
Slap you on the back and say:
"Please!"
"Please!"
Trying to make some sense of it all
But I can see it makes no sense at all
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor?
'Cuz I don't think that I can take any more
Clowns to left of me
Jokers to the right
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you
Well, you started off with nothing
And you're proud that you're a self-made man
And your family all come crawling
Slap you on the back and say:
"Please!"
"Please!"
Well, I don't know why I came here tonight
I got the feeling that something ain't right
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
And I'm wondering how I'll get down those stairs
Clowns to left of me
Jokers to the right
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you
Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you
Stuck in the middle with you
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you...

As I sit here neath, this poet tree
And look around, at all I see...
Time for trees, to shed leaves of green
Set free by breezes, Fall colors soon seen
Long days of Summer, sing their last refrain
Dampened, not forgotten, by gentle warm rain
A seagull cries out, but not in protest
To paddle in puddles, a morsel her quest
Though seasons may come, and seasons may go
Nature's great plan, and this you well know

Last days of Summer are here, an soon gone
Tomorrow is Fall, so it's time ta move on
The best part about Fall is not raking leaves, but sneaking over the fence for a crisp new crop apple...
Or two...

I lie half awake
Late at night
I reach out to touch you
To feel you by my side
And I reach
And I reach
But I never get to feel you
Will I ever get to feel you again?
Again...
Just one more time
One more moment
To take you in my arms
One more chance
One more kiss
Before I wake to find you gone
One more time
Before I have to face another day
And my heart breaks...again
It's only a dream
But it's also real
I don't want it to end
But I know it will
So I pray and I pray
Every night I'm on my knees
Begging for the chance to see you again
Again'
Life is a beach an then ya die

As I sit here beneath, this poet tree
I count the leaves, that fall by three
And wonder what, the Spring might bring
Perhaps a love song, my heart will sing
With Winter's chill, not far from view
Remembering the flicker, that candles do
The snuggling of lovers, by fireside
And watching it snow, too cold outside
Recalling memories, all through the year
Like snapshots I save, and then reappear
Summer's not heard, it's time to move on
With eyes heavy, I'll be here till dawn........

How do I mend a broken heart?
My entire world has fallen apart.
How do I find hope in a brand new day,
when the one I love has gone away?
My mind overflows with memories of you,
of all that we've shared, all that we knew.
I long for your touch and your warm embrace,
the look in your eyes, the smile on your face.
My dreams are filled with your soft gentle kiss,
I wake and cry for all that I miss.
How do I mend a broken heart,
when my one true love and I are apart?
My heart knows to love only you, it won't let go, what do I do?
Our moments together were precious and few,
but I cherished them all more than you knew.
I love you my angel and always will,
I loved you then and I love you still.

Can't you see
the poet tree
changing leaves
in the breeze?
Won't be long
we'll sing the song
crispy crunching throng
righting wrong.
'Tis but a pleasant chore
to rake the forest floor
and whom could ask for more
of what nature has in store?
