[Verse 1]
Well, since our separation
You have taken up with thieves
They tell you just how wonderful you are
Baby, I have nothing but respect for you
And I would never try to rip you off
'Cause I know that your heart still runs with mine
You're just afraid of gettin' soft
[Chorus]
It's a long, long way to the middle
The middle of the road
Well, it's summer time in California
But I never felt so cold
It's a long, long way to the middle
The middle of the road
But I still love you, baby
Why don't you come on home?
[Verse 2]
Well, I put the bat out of my mind
And my memories are good
The hardwood floor 'neath the kitchen door
Where ya, you taught me all your dirty words
When we first made love under your ivory cross
It was a rainy Easter Sunday
And we were drinking champagne in the Mulholland hills
When I finally felt that stone roll away
[Chorus]
It's a long, long way to the middle
The middle of the road
But you still got a hold on me
Even though you're gettin' old
It's a long, long way to the middle
The middle of the road
But I still love you baby
So why don't you come on home?
Why don't you come on...
[Bridge]
Well, happy birthday baby
Hope you're getting realistic
You're two months and two years away
From the same old sad statistic
To live out in the wilderness
You gotta learn to start a fire
But you can stand out there with your fist in the air
While the rest of us get on with our lives
[Chorus]
And it's a long, long way to the middle
The middle of the road
But don't you listen to me, baby
I've been bought and sold
But it's a long, long way to the middle
The middle of the road
But I'll always love you, baby
If you wanna come back home
You come back...
