Emerald’s persona in this song is of a woman who married a man after being promised jewellery and perfume and all sorts of lavish gifts during their courtship, but he couldn’t deliver, and she feels stuck (hence the title) in a marriage that she is bored in and no longer desires. However, she can’t...
[Verse 1]
I close my eyes and dream about a sunny holiday
I wish that I was beaching down on Saint Tropez
Or sitting in the lobby at the fabulous 'Pierre'
With diamonds on my fingers and not a single care
Instead I’m on the avenue where nobody goes
With fields of green that wilted like a last summer rose
Some people call it paradise but I call it pain
Baby, take me anywhere but not here again
[Chorus]
Why am I sitting in the middle of nowhere?
Standing here with nothing to do
Wondering if I really love you
Oh, oh, I guess that I do
Why am I sitting in the middle of nowhere?
Standing here with nothing to do
Wondering if I really love you
Oh, oh, I guess that I do
[Verse 2]
You promised me a motorcade and endless perfume
A palace in Geneva with a perfect view
And dreams painted yellow like the color of gold
And dine with kings and queens 'till the food gets cold
Instead I'm on the edge of all I thought I would be
This dream is now a comedy I don't wanna see
Some people call it laughter, but I call it pain
Baby, take me anywhere but not here again
[Chorus]
Why am I sitting in the middle of nowhere?
Standing here with nothing to do
Wondering if I really love you
Oh, oh, I guess that I do
Why am I sitting in the middle of nowhere?
Standing here with nothing to do
Wondering if I really love you
Oh, oh, I guess that I do, I do
[Bridge]
I know we have a chemistry
This combination's heavenly
But don't forget you promised me everything
Everything
I know we have a chemistry
This combination's heavenly
But don't forget that you promised me everything
[Chorus]
Why am I sitting in the middle of nowhere?
Standing here with nothing to do
Wondering if I really love you
Oh, oh, I guess that I do
Why am I sitting in the middle of nowhere?
Standing here with nothing to do
Wondering if I really love you
Oh, oh, I guess that I do
