《Halfway Home》歌词

[00:00:01] Halfway Home - Nerina Pallot

[00:00:24] I've got a quarter in my pocket of an apple left to eat

[00:00:30] It's a wonder that I'm standing on my own two feet

[00:00:36] In the shadow of a thousand veiled Victorian goodbyes

[00:00:42] Jewels of litter come to greet me and it stings my eyes

[00:00:49] Oh it burns like a fire and it pulls me through-

[00:00:55] We are parted by desire for the strange and new

[00:01:01] I've got a quarter in my pocket I'm advancing to the booth

[00:01:07] I am picking up and praying that I talk to you

[00:01:12] And now I'm halfway home I'm at the corner of our street

[00:01:22] Would you like to come and meet me

[00:01:25] Now that I am halfway home

[00:01:31] Man I never felt so lonely

[00:01:35] I long for you to hold me now I'm home

[00:01:50] Somedays there was comfort as a stranger far from home

[00:01:55] Sometimes a hunger and a longing not to be alone

[00:02:02] Imagining emotion in each man that I would meet-

[00:02:07] But it was physics and subtraction to an ancient beat

[00:02:14] Oh it burned like a fire and I wore it so

[00:02:20] We are tied up in desire and we won't let go

[00:02:26] Well I've no quarter in my pocket of no apple left to eat;

[00:02:32] I am running I am running and I can't feel my feet

[00:02:37] And now I'm halfway home I'm at the corner of our street

[00:02:47] Would you like to come and meet me

[00:02:50] Now that I'm halfway home

[00:02:56] Man I never felt so lonely

[00:03:00] I long for you to hold me now I'm home

[00:03:05] Home is where I wanna be

[00:03:08] Now I'm home home is where I'm gonna be

[00:03:14] Past the church and past the steeple

[00:03:17] Past the sad and lonely people

[00:03:20] Past the old school on the avenue

[00:03:24] I am running I am running

[00:03:29] And now I'm halfway home I'm at the corner of our street

[00:03:36] Would you like to co9me and meet me

[00:03:39] Now that I'm halfway home

[00:03:45] Man I never felt so lonely

[00:03:49] I long for you to hold me now I'm home

[00:03:52] And now I'm halfway home I'm at the corner of our street

[00:04:00] Would you like to co9me and meet me

[00:04:03] Now that I'm halfway home

[00:04:09] Man I never felt so lonely

[00:04:13] I long for you to hold me now I'm home
