Halfway Home - Nerina Pallot[00:00:01]
I've got a quarter in my pocket of an apple left to eat[00:00:24]
It's a wonder that I'm standing on my own two feet [00:00:30]
In the shadow of a thousand veiled Victorian goodbyes[00:00:36]
Jewels of litter come to greet me and it stings my eyes [00:00:42]
Oh it burns like a fire and it pulls me through-[00:00:49]
We are parted by desire for the strange and new [00:00:55]
I've got a quarter in my pocket I'm advancing to the booth [00:01:01]
I am picking up and praying that I talk to you [00:01:07]
And now I'm halfway home I'm at the corner of our street [00:01:12]
Would you like to come and meet me [00:01:22]
Now that I am halfway home[00:01:25]
Man I never felt so lonely[00:01:31]
I long for you to hold me now I'm home [00:01:35]
Somedays there was comfort as a stranger far from home[00:01:50]
Sometimes a hunger and a longing not to be alone [00:01:55]
Imagining emotion in each man that I would meet-[00:02:02]
But it was physics and subtraction to an ancient beat [00:02:07]
Oh it burned like a fire and I wore it so [00:02:14]
We are tied up in desire and we won't let go [00:02:20]
Well I've no quarter in my pocket of no apple left to eat;[00:02:26]
I am running I am running and I can't feel my feet [00:02:32]
And now I'm halfway home I'm at the corner of our street [00:02:37]
Would you like to come and meet me [00:02:47]
Now that I'm halfway home[00:02:50]
Man I never felt so lonely[00:02:56]
I long for you to hold me now I'm home[00:03:00]
Home is where I wanna be [00:03:05]
Now I'm home home is where I'm gonna be [00:03:08]
Past the church and past the steeple [00:03:14]
Past the sad and lonely people [00:03:17]
Past the old school on the avenue [00:03:20]
I am running I am running [00:03:24]
And now I'm halfway home I'm at the corner of our street [00:03:29]
Would you like to co9me and meet me[00:03:36]
Now that I'm halfway home[00:03:39]
Man I never felt so lonely[00:03:45]
I long for you to hold me now I'm home [00:03:49]
And now I'm halfway home I'm at the corner of our street [00:03:52]
Would you like to co9me and meet me[00:04:00]
Now that I'm halfway home[00:04:03]
Man I never felt so lonely[00:04:09]
I long for you to hold me now I'm home[00:04:13]
