"The Middle" lyrics

I take my chances on the frozen lakes
I don't go to church on Sundays
I traded my order for a whiskey
But I know my God and he knows me

Don't go running your mouth on me
About the light and the dark and nothing in-between
I see a right and a wrong and a line in the middle
Don't forget about the middle
Don't forget about the middle
Don't forget about the middle

I fell in love in a bar downtown
She was a one-night-stand that stuck around
Now I'm the only man she ever dances for now
We're both missing some pieces but make it work somehow

Don't go pointing your finger at me
You don't know where I've been or what I've seen
Closing your eyes is not the answer to the riddle
I found it in the middle
I found it in the middle
I found it in the middle

I think you'll like it in the middle
Why don't you try it in the middle?
Waters nice here in the middle
Waters nice here in the middle
