Ambivalence

Hey there, my friend, how have you been Been meaning to write, been meaning to send This little song of mine, a tale to tell About ambivalence, a dance we know all too well Oh, it fits in a pretty frame, torn between two Can't place the blame, one foot in and one foot out In a sea of doubt, we swim about Remember those nights lost in debate Choosing between love and choosing too wait Caught in the middle, not sure where to go You can hear it sings, a familiar echo Don't wanna give the whole world to you The person coming out is brand new You can't force it to be one-way There's a reason it's written that way Don't wanna give the whole world to you I guess we'll never really undo I hope that you can think it through Not for me, but just for you Been trying to find the words to say But they always seem to slip away So here's a song, a heartfelt clue That my heart's out there all for you Been trying to figure it out since it went away People don't talk enough in this day and age Sometimes all it takes is talking it through But when you close all the doors, you can't break through Remember those nights lost in debate Hoping for the best, but you can only wait Caught in the middle, you know where to go Cause you can hear it sings, a familiar echo Don't wanna give the whole world to you The person coming out is brand new You can't force it to be one-way There's a reason it's written that way Don't wanna give the whole world to you I guess we'll never really undo I hope that you can think it through Not for me, but just for you Don't wanna give the whole world to you The person coming out is brand new You can't force it to be one-way There's a reason it's written that way Don't wanna give the whole world to you But getting pretty close will do One step forward and one step back Now I know that it's a long road back
