In Between

In between just a fling in the rain

In between an apartment and a front porch swing

In between cheap and fancy a guitar and a Grammy

In between reckless and responsibility

Sometimes I'm my mother's daughter

Sometimes I'm her friend

Sometimes I play grown up

And sometimes I play pretend

Sometimes I'm a princess dressed

All ribbons and all curls

And sometimes I just wanna scream

I'm not a little girl

I'm dumb enough to think I know it all

Smart enough to know I don't

Young enough to think I'll live forever

Old enough to know I won't

In between

In between beer and a basement

In a napa valley vacation

In between hometown and a neon city

In between underestimated and overexpectated

Who I was and who I'm gonna be

'Cause sometimes I'm my mother's daughter

Sometimes I'm her friend

Sometimes I play grown up

And sometimes I play pretend

Sometimes I'm a princess dressed

All ribbons and all curls

And sometimes I just wanna scream

I'm not a little girl

I'm dumb enough to think I know it all

Smart enough to know I don't

Young enough to think I'll live forever

Old enough to know I won't

I know I won't

I'm half head up in the clouds

Half feet down on the ground

'Cause it ain't that simple

As a number sitting on a page

When they say act your age

But you're stuck there in the middle

Sometimes I'm my mother's daughter

Sometimes I'm her friend

Sometimes I play grown up

And sometimes I play pretend

Sometimes I'm a princess dressed

All ribbons and all curls

And sometimes I just wanna scream

I'm not a little girl

I'm dumb enough to think I know it all

Smart enough to know I don't

Young enough to think I'll live forever

Old enough to know I won't

In the in between yeah

In the in between

Hey sweet pea it's momma

I just wanna tell you I love you think about you

Listening to you by your window

Can't wait to see you when get back
