Halfway Home Songtext

von Lori McKenna

Halfway home
Well you ain't so sure he's the one
4AM and you drive alone
With last night's clothes on
Halfway home
Tell yourself you're still strong
Wonderin' what's so damn wrong with needing someone

Calling the lovelorn girls of Davidson County
Tired of the games that the boys up there play
Calling the dreaming girls looking for a saviour
He ain't gonna save ya
That's just what you think his eyes say

Deep down you know that you're worth more than this
Or the cost of that dinner last night
He'd be driving you home if he was worth half a shit
And his daddy had raised him up right
Let me remind you there's real love out there down the road

Right now you're just halfway home
Making up reasons why
Let him sleep through the kiss goodbye
Cause neither one of you cared
So rinse the smoke out of your slept in hair
Wash your face and change those clothes
We've all been there

Calling the lovelorn girls of Davidson County
Tired of the games that the boys up there play
Calling the dreaming girls looking for a saviour
He ain't gonna save ya
That's just what you think his eyes say

Deep down you know that you're worth more than this
Or the cost of that dinner last night
He'd be driving you home if he was worth half a shit
And his daddy had raised him up right
Let me remind you there's real love out there down the road

Right now your just halfway home
Halfway home tonight
