Mr In Between

Where there's a broken heart over a breakup 
I am always standing by
With the convenient shoulder to lean on
On which a girl can comfortably cry

If there's ever any problem
I am quickly on the scene
Where all the ladies like to call me

Mr. In-Between

I've grown accustomed to this name given
Not bothered all that much
I'm always ready for the rebound
With my bag of tenderness and love

Filling a much needed position
In today's society
Someone here to sooth and give a listen

Mr. In-Between

Not concerned with being the first choice
Sometimes not even the second or third
Though I often have the last voice
When Mr. Prefect turns out to be a jerk

I'm always willing and able
Just waiting in the wing
Ready to give it all that I've got

Mr. In-Between

Sounds like someone is due to meet Miss Perfect because you sound perfect yourself. A very endearing poem, Mike.
