I wrote this track in about ten minutes, one morning, while I was on tour with Nik Kershaw. I was sitting in the biggest hotel room and I thought to myself...... I am 40 years old I am in the middle of my life!!!

Middleman - Lyrics
Verse 1
I’m in the middle of a road man what a road I like it
I’m in the middle of the night stomping on the ground it feels right
well there is nothing in my mind no not at all
I’m in the middle of a world man what a world I like it
there’s a burning little feeling like a gnawing pain
and another in my heart that I can’t explain
I’m in the middle of a world man what a world I like it.
Verse 2
I’m in the middle of a night stomping on the ground it feels right
I’m in the middle of the world the world is running wild well I’m wild
well I don’t believe you need to hear it all yeh
I’m in the middle of a world man what a world I like it
there’s a burning little feeling like a gnawing pain
and another in my heart that I can’t explain
middle of a world man what a world I like it.
Middle 8
What did you expect you know its always just a point of view
when you’re hanging by a thread its never gonna pull you through
oh yeh!!

Middle 8
What did you expect you know its always just a point of view

Verse 3
I’m in the middle of a world man what a world I like it
I’m in the middle of the night stomping on the ground it feels right
well there is nothing in my mind no not at all
I’m in the middle of a world man what a world i like it
there’s a burning little feeling like a gnawing pain
and another in my heart that I can’t explain
I’m in the middle of a world man what a world I like it.
I’m in the middle of the world,I’m in the middle of my life
I’m in the middle of the world, middle of my life
I’m in the middle of a world man what a life, life, life.
