Lyrics
VERSE
My days are too long knowing you're gone
And my nights are too full of just being home alone
My bed's way too big, my pillow's hard as hell
I'm too well to be sick; too sick to be well
VERSE
It's too hot at the beach, too cold in the cool
Too dry in the house, too wet in the pool
You know, life can be rough when lived even at its best
My time with you was an island of rest
CHORUS
I'm between hurt and a soft spot
Since you said goodbye yesterday
I'm between hurt and a soft spot
How could you treat me this way?
Hurt is what I feel, but I feel a soft spot, too
I'm between hurt and a soft spot
Don't know what to do
SOLO
VERSE
You walked out; now I just seem to roam
Between hurt and a soft spot; won't you come back home?
Is there no middle, no right place for us?
If we can't keep on tryin,' let's just turn this back to dust
Repeat CHORUS
TAG
Yes, I'm between hurt and a soft spot
Don't know what to do
