Halfway Home

(album: Let It Ride - 1998)

Today, I'll hide behind my microphone
And nurse my broken bones
I think I'd like to be back home
And I just can't wait
So wish me luck and I'll celebrate

And I'll get my coat
And send the note that I wrote
Just to let you know
That I'm just a stone's throw
Away from home

And there's no quick and easy way
To short the fuse you carry, hey!
As you're here, will you agree
There's been no change, it's still ol' me

I'm halfway home so leave the lantern on for me
I'm tired of kicking stones and I'll be back home today

I'll stay behind my microphone
Because the more I moan
Can only leave my changes blown
And I just can't wait
So wish me fortune, a safe escape

And I'll get my coat
And send the note that I wrote
Just to let you know
That I'm just a stone's throw
Away from home

And there's no quick and easy way
To short the fuse you carry, hey!
As you're here, will you agree
There's been no change, it's still ol' me

I'm halfway home and I'm tired of kicking stones

And there's no tried and tested way
I bought the blues feel each day
Won't you stray and walk with me, and keep my patience in a tree?

I'm halfway home so leave the lantern on for me
I'm tired of kicking stones and I'll be back home today

And there's no tried and tested way
I bought the blues feel each day
Won't you stray and walk with me, and keep my patience in a tree?

I'm halfway home so leave the lantern on for me
I'm tired of kicking stones and I'll be back home today
