Caught In The Middle (Love & Life)

Love and life, a mysteries compel.
Sit back, relax 'cause now it's time to go
back in my past. 
My personal strike for being caught in the middle of love and life!
Love is a fairytale, earthly blind!
But life is true, the reality chime!
When life frames on love, it's kinda hard for you to
give up the satisfactory you started for!
This is a metaphor, sort of a riddle.
If you're confused, chill, and I'm sure it'll
clear up for you and a little bit love and life and 
caught in the middle of... 

Who and why your love ain't always right.
Especially when you cross the path of life.
The wrath of life is hard, 'cause you taught to dream on.
But when in the world reality's on!
You found somebody to be with.
You pour your lovin' in, and it seems as if
you're pourin' love into a bottomless pit.
You love each other but it just ain't workin'!
You're not meant to be together it seems like.
Well just think, maybe it's things like;
She work nine-to-five, you work five-to-nine.
You're never together, two separate lives!
Love versus life, see what I mean?
You like the movie, she like the club scene.
Nobody's wrong and nobody's right.
Just caught in the middle of love and life.

Chorus

Everybody wants to capture the rapture.
Love and live happily ever after.
Walkin' around barefoot, sniffin' daisies.
Layin' around all day long, makin' babies.
Go to France to dance 'n' eatin' 'n' sweetin'.
Gamblin' in Rio. Winnin' 'cause cheatin'!
These are situations you can have some fun in, but open your eyes,
and real life comes runnin'! 
Dreamin' again. 
A plateau to come down of.
Back to the world as the alarm-clock sounds off!
Start the day right, call your girlfriend but love and life start at it again....
She says "Baby, I need to see you!"
You say "Babe, I got work to tend to!"
Love tells you to go and be with her,
But life says "Boy, get your butt to work!"
Think about your life as a rock in a hard place.
Acceliratin' like a hi-speed car-chase
Heartache or heartbreak cuts like a knife.
Caught in the middle of love and life!

Chorus
