Alex Bevan - Compa** Rose lyrics

He wakes to the sound of planes Somebody's goin' somewhere He feels his luck changin', changin' He looks at his palms and stares, And then he hears the soul of the engines It's like Beethoven when they're landing He goes to work every day But wishes he was dancing And in his dreams he is riding In a field of grain and summer com In his dreams he arrives Worse for wear but not forlorn Standing in the middle, In the middle of the Compa** Rose Standing in the middle, In the middle of the Compa** Rose It's North, South, East and West Oh, she sees the day she will finally find Running off center down a country road She's just inside the pa**ing line Got a back beat rhythm On a blacktop highway Objects appear in her rear view mirror She's just a little closer to the big green sign Saying: "I thought you were out of here" Leaving behind the city of bridges, None of them burning As the skyline falls Somewhere the old horizon sets The new one waits and calls Standing in the middle, In the middle of the Compa** Rose She's standing in the middle, In the middle of the Compa** Rose Feel the silk wind urging and lilting I know a path might shine you see It's just one step in any direction It's a brave new world, it‘s there to see Oh, do you go to sleep and you dream of rising On wings of fire above a j**eled web And off in the vortex as you climb A chorus of voices is in your head singing Glory, Hallelujah, nothing ventured, nothing gained There might be good things coming to ya But you can't stay here, you can't remain Standing in the middle, In the middle of the Compa** Rose Standing in the middle, In the middle of the Compa** Rose And in these dreams the vision's clearer Of the steps that take us toward the sky In these dreams the vision's clearer One day I‘ll awake and find Just one answer to just one question like "What holds me back, and what path to take?" Sooner or later you have to choose When you do you make no mistake You‘re Standing in the middle, In the middle of the Compa** Rose Standing in the middle, In the middle of the Compa** Rose
