Middle of Forever Lyrics

There was a white house

With a little baby boy

His mama rocking him so tight

With a loving man by her side

And there was black coffee in the pot

Keeping us warm like

Baby socks

There were red cracks

In the white of their eyes

They didn't get to sleep that night

Cause they were crying lakes

Oceans deep and miles wide

But she opened right up to me

And I looked for strength

In my cup

With a tear in my eye

And a promise to keep

To love that little boy

Miles wide and oceans deep

There'll be joy and pain

But I won't let him forget

From where he came

But what will remain

What will stay the same

When we have no one

Not even ourselves to blame

For this love

And this loss

From these dreams

And their cost

But there's life

And this chasm

That could tear us

I said it could tear us

I said it will tear us

Apart

It won't

It won't tear us apart

No, no, no

Because here we are

In the middle of forever
