Lyrics: Richard Fleeshman. Play It Down The Middle.

I was dry as a desert plain
She came down like a summer rain
Then came a hurricane

It was too intoxicating
Feeling the pressure pushing down on me
Fighting the gravity

And now I, I don?t wanna stay, don?t wanna go
I don?t want fast, don?t want slow
I don?t want high, don?t want a low
Just wanna play it down the middle this time

Play it down the middle this time
Play it down the middle this time
I don?t want two extremes, just in-betweens
I wanna play it down the middle this time

I?m just a shadow of myself
A plain old reflection of who I used to be
It's staring back at me

Like a sun and a moon in the same sky
I stood in a crowd and I feel like I?m all alone
From color to monochrome

And now I, I don?t wanna stay, don?t wanna go
I don?t want fast, don?t want slow
I don?t want high, don?t want a low
Just wanna play it down the middle this time

Play it down the middle this time
Play it down the middle this time
I don?t want two extremes, just in-betweens
I wanna play it down the middle this time

Don?t want maybe or someday, baby
I don?t want maybe, I need to know right now

And now I don?t wanna stay, don?t wanna go
I don?t want fast, don?t want slow
I don?t want high

Play it down the middle this time
I don?t want two extremes, just in-betweens
I wanna play it down the middle this time

Play it down the middle this time
Play it down the middle this time
I don?t want two extremes, just in-betweens
I wanna play it down the middle this time

Fleeshman, Richard
