some days just fall down on you
you try and try and try
to work it out and then
and then it's gone again

i'd never blame this on you
these words are falling out
they're at your feet and crying
and darling, so am i
i'd never blame this on you

so tell me, why are we fighting?
just tell me, why are we fighting?
tell me, why are we fighting all over again?
meet me in the middle, meet me in the middle
meet me in the middle this one time

i thought we'd just always last
true love can never die
but when you fight and fight and fight
well there goes half your life
and there are no good 'byes.

so tell me, why are we fighting?
just tell me, why are we fighting?
tell me, why are we fighting all over again?
meet me in the middle, meet me in the middle
meet me in the middle this one last time.
