Halfway To The Sun

(album: Man In Motion - 1988)

Well, I've been out here thinking
About the night before
How you held me tight
You kissed me like you've never done before
Well, I ain't no politician
But I sure know what was said
I don't put much weight in promises
That you made to me
While you're laying in my bed
There's a good side
And a bad side to it all, yeah
Oh, have mercy, you say
Gimme, gimme, gimme it all, yeah

There's a good side
And a bad side to it all, yeah
Oh, have mercy, you say
Gimme, gimme, gimme it all, yeah

[Chorus:]
Watch out little sister
Watch out where you run
Well, you won't find me
I'm halfway there
Halfway to the sun
When you step out on your conscience
You step out on the run
You won't step on me, 'cause I'll be gone
I'll be halway to the sun
Look out

So wake up little dark eyes
We've had our go for now
Though I'm leaving you with a bitter heart
I'm gonna leave you anyhow
So take them overdone lips
And that million dollar smile
And go use them up on some younger pup
That'll spend his time and money on your style

There's a good side
And a bad side to it all, yeah
Oh, have mercy, you say
Gimme, gimme, gimme it all, yeah

[Chorus 2x]
