The Middle (feat. eleanor)

Hey, how does it go?
How you be?
I wanna know
I wanna see
Where you at?
I'll be there quick
I wanna meet
Meet you in the middle of the week

When I get there, please hold me close
Do not let go
You're the one I chose
Something between us, it's in our bones
Somehow, someway now, you complete my soul
When I'm with you, there's no sorrow
I just feel loved and like I'm home
I appreciate you, I hope you know

We've been far apart
I've been workin' on all the things I love
How 'bout you?
What's that you do?
Are you happy with, with the life you live?
I hope it's true

Hey, how does it go?
How you be?
You wanna know
You wanna see
Here I am
Please come visit
Want you to meet
Meet me in the middle of the week

Don't be a stranger when you come 'round
This is my town, and I'll show you the grounds
But when you're homebound, don't forget about me
I'll keep you in my thoughts and memories

We, we were so young when we first met
I remember you were upset
I asked you, "What can I do to help?"
You said, "Just let
Let me cry in peace," and then I left
But then I turned myself back around
(But then you turned yourself back around)
I couldn't leave you there on the ground
(You couldn't leave me there on the ground)
I embraced you, and you made a sound
(You embraced me, and I made a sound)
That's the day our love was found
You cried into my arms, but now you're out
(I cried into your arms, but now I'm out)

You are my reason for leaving my old life behind
I have realized I need you here, here with me
I love you, baby girl
I need you in my world

Hey, how does it go?
How you be?
I wanna know
You wanna see
Here we are
So far apart
We gotta meet
Meet in the middle of the week

We are joined at last
I have missed you, babe
Let's share a kiss
Now I wanna make a family
Will you marry me?
We'll live happily
Don't you wanna see where this can lead?
We'll make it so far
With you in my arms and me in yours
Our love will soar
I love you, baby girl
I'm glad you're in my world
