Mates of State - Middle Is Gold

Lyrics

Catch them when you can, 'cause it takes them to know

Who, can you tell me, who do you love?

You ought to know things will never be the same, boy

Middle is gold and gold does not forgive

That's enough to drive you mad

Nora's on the step trying to make a mama go

You ought to know things will never be the same, boy

Who, can you tell me

Middle is gold and gold does not forgive

Tempered on the block, and a black-ade is a must

You ought to know things will never be the same, boy

Who, can you tell me

Middle is gold, and who do you love?

That's enough to drive you mad

I derive and I know you're gonna cheer up someday

We have enough to make us stay

This ain't enough to make us stay

We don't desire alien ways

I don't desire any other way

I derive and I know you're gonna cheer up someday

We have enough to make us stay

This ain't enough to make us stay

We don't desire alien ways

I don't desire any other way

I derive and I know you're gonna come back someday soon

You can get only what it is you want

It's always the same by and by

The window down

By and by
