Stuck In The Middle
JAY SEAN | www.Marvin-Vibez.in Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm just sitting here, tryna
Forget bout all those years, and I
I can't take the thought of him
Alone with you (alone with you)
It's been a year or so, and you
Moved on and left me cold, and I
I wish that I could let you know
That I still got a thang for you

But you got another man
He says he loves you too
Baby girl I understand
This must be hard on you
And it gets so hard sometimes
To know just what to do
Stuck in the middle with you

[Chrous:]
You and I
Through it all
Sunny days
Through the storms
Still I know
He could never love you like me
Girl I know he and you going new
He messed it up with it all
No he could never love you like me
Can we go back again as lovers not as friends
'Cause I know
He could never love you like me
Girl I've been there before
Time to close that open door, I know
That he could never love you like me

I was the one you came running to
When tears would fall from what he do
Who knew that friends would become lovers
Going crazy giving my all but getting half o' you
I'm not half the man so tell me what to do
Never gonna let you go, no
'Cause you know our love is true

Babe you got another man
But he's not there for you
Baby girl I understand
But this ain't all on you
And it gets so hard sometimes
To know just what to do
Stuck in the middle with you

[Chorus:]
You and I
Through it all
Sunny days
Through the storms
Still I know
He could never love you like me
Girl I know he and you going new
He messed it up with it all
No he could never love you like me
Can we go back again as lovers not as friends
'Cause I know
He could never love you like me
Girl I've been there before
Time to close that open door, I know
That he could never love you like me

I know
That you will never find another love like
Me and you can look but won't find another man like
Me and even though you might have seperated from me
Gotta make a choice can't wait forever

[Chorus:]
You and I
Through it all
Sunny days
Through the storms
Still I know
He could never love you like me
Girl I know he and you going new
He messed it up with it all
No he could never love you like me
Can we go back again as lovers not as friends
'Cause I know
He could never love you like me
Girl I've been there before




Time to close that open door, I know
That he could never love you like me

Overall Meaning

The song "Stuck in the Middle" by JAY SEAN is a love ballad that depicts a man's despair of being stuck in the middle, still loving a woman who left him and moved on to someone else. The lyrics describe the man's feelings of being unable to forget the woman even after years have passed, and the pain he feels at the thought of her being with someone else, as he is still holding on to his love for her. Despite this, he acknowledges that she now has someone else in her life and that he needs to respect that.


The chorus emphasizes the fact that he knows that the woman's current partner could never love her like he does, and he longs to go back to the time when they were lovers, not just friends. The lyrics reveal the complicated nature of love and the difficult decision of holding on to love or letting go of it.


Overall, the song is a heartfelt plea for a second chance, full of emotional lyrics that perfectly capture the theme of lost love and unrequited affection.
