For so long
It's been you and me
But now there's someone else
I know you want to see
And, you say
Why can't we be free
But in the middle
I don't want to be
You say I'm wrong
To show my jealousy
You say that it's a chance
To show maturity
Well I don't want
To spoil your fantasy
But in the middle
I don't want to be
Oh Lord
When you gave me your affection
I thought (I thought)
I was moving in the right direction
But that's all gone
And I'm no referee
So in the middle
I don't want to be
I don't wanna cramp your style
That would be juvenile
You know you're more versatile than me
You know what you want to do
I'm not gonna question you
I always want you to feel free
Oh Lord
When I gave you my affection
I thought (I thought)
I was making such a good connection
But that's all gone
And so I have to leave
'Cause in the middle
I don't want to be
In the middle
I don't want to be
