Halfway Home - 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

Wondering 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 savior

He ain’t gonna save you

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 the 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 care

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 savior

He ain’t gonna save you

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 the 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

Halfway home tonight
