Текст песни Half Way Home - Eric Hirshberg

Well I'm leaning towards my reflection
And the wrinkles that have gathered round my eyes
And my mind has wandered somewhere else
In the distance, a neighbor's baby cries
And I'm trying my best to remember
Where my younger self thought i would be
When I got to the age that I am now
And I wonder what he would think of me

Because I'm half way home
And I can't make it back on my own
I'm half way home
And I won't make it back all alone

I don't know if that mole will be cancer
I don't know who I would tell first
I don't know if I just had a stroke or not
But I wonder which is worse
And I'm trying my hardest to listen
To what my older self wants me to know
He says there's only two things you'll regret one day
And you're staring down the barrel of both
And I hate to be the one to tell you
But I think that you already know
It's the dreams that you couldn't hold onto
And the nightmares that you couldn't let go

I'm only half way home
And I can't make it back on my own
I'm half way home
And I won't make it back all alone

Well I might want to take a vacation
And I might want to go alone
And I might want to sit on my high school steps
And feel the pull towards home
Cause I haven't gotten in trouble
And I haven't seen the light disappear
And I haven't seen the leaves change colors in 27 years

I'm only half way home
I'm only half way home, now
And I can't make it back on my own
And I won't make it back on my own
I'm half way home
I'm only half way home, now
And I won't make it back all alone
And I won't make it back on my own
