about

This remastered track is taken from the 2005 album, Making It Right Again.

lyrics

Lyla
They say that the thicker the skin
And the harder you try to hide it inside
The softer the heart is within
Lyla
Always waiting for the future to come
Well tonight you hold the future in your arms

Life is a riddle
That's plain enough to see
Sometimes in the middle
Is the hardest place to be

(harmonica solo)

Lyla
You're looking in the mirror
With your grandfather's eyes
You wear your disguise
But they don't help you see any clearer
Lyla
Still waiting for the future to come
Well tonight you hold the future in your arms

Life is a riddle
That's plain enough to see
Sometimes in the middle
Is the hardest place to be

(guitar solo)

Lyla
Always waiting for the future to come
As much as you've tried to leave it behind
The past seems to come right along
Lyla
Yet you wonder what tomorrow will be
When you look into the future What do you see?

Life is a riddle
That's plain enough to see
Sometimes in the middle
Is the hardest place to be
Lyla in the middle
Was the hardest place to be
