Horses - Jon Langford

They call me Blue eyed Dan a shell of a man but I was half way home I didn't seem to have much of a plan but I was half way home I said I was coming back to stay But a lot of things can happen along the way I was half way home You were waiting on the southbound train I was half way home But the platform was empty as it rolled away, half way home The hills and the valleys all looked the same And I met someone who remembered my name I was half way home, I was half way home Down by the river saying "Stand and deliver!" I was half way home Dirty thirty eyes like a birdie half way home I jumped up to reach the top But the law kept coming and bagged the lot I was halfway home halfway home My heart starts pumping when I think of your, half way home You're never gonna look into those eyes of blue, I was half way home Cross the street, open the door Nobody here really cares anymore Half way home, I was half way home Heart starts pumping, hearts start pumping Half way home Half way home Heart starts pumping, hearts start pumping I was half way home Yeah, I was half way home I was half way home Heart starts pumping, hearts start pumping Half way home Half way home
