Lyrics
couldn't wait to bust out of that place and get a taste of city life
the first few weeks I couldn't sleep these streets were so alive
people all around bright lights big sounds
but there are some things missing that can only be found
in the middle of nowhere
cicadas sing all night
in the middle of nowhere
the moons your only light
you recognize every face every Sunday
Amazing Grace flows out into the air
in the middle of nowhere
The guys at work can't hide those smirks when I start to reminisce
they say you've lost your mind, give it time, nothing's better than this
cool bars hot stars nothing closes down
why would you leave the big time for that small town
in the middle of nowhere....
there's only one stop light
in the middle of nowhere
no scrapers touch the sky
open space is all around can't get lost in a crowd
and disappear into thin air
in the middle of nowhere
is somewhere that I wanna be it's apart of me
if they would go they would see that
in the middle of nowhere
cicadas sing all night
in the middle of nowhere
the moons your only light
you recognize every face every Sunday
Amazing Grace flows out into the air
in the middle of nowhere
