Halfway House
One fenced in acre
Four red brick walls
Such a perfect picture
Like the ones of us hangin' in the hall
We ain't ready to give in
I'm stubborn, you're strong
Just can't tell the difference
Whether we're right or wrong
We're in a halfway house for love
Where gettin' by is good enough
Until it's not
Somebody needs more
So we both keep holding back
Cause no love at all seems bad
So it's halfway in
Halfway out
Just going through the motions in this halfway house
You see it half empty
But to me it's half good
If we put it together
We might have one glass full
So meet me in the middle
Pour it on strong enough to make believe
That we're oh so close
Just waiting on a missing piece
We're in a halfway house for love
Where gettin' by is good enough
Until it's not
Somebody needs more
So we both keep holding back
Cause no love at all seems bad
So it's halfway in
Halfway out
Just going through the motions in this halfway house
You could go in all the way
Baby I could too
We could dive in head first
Into the deep blue
But we don't wanna risk it
Don't wanna sink if we can't swim
If we don't put our chips in
No way to lose no way to win
That leaves us in...
A halfway house for love
Where gettin' by is good enough
Until it's not
Somebody needs more
So we both keep holding back
Cause no love at all seems bad
So it's halfway in
Halfway out
Just going through the motions in this halfway house
In this halfway house
Four red brick walls
Such a perfect picture
Like the ones of us hangin' in the hall
We ain't ready to give in
I'm stubborn, you're strong
Just can't tell the difference
Whether we're right or wrong
We're in a halfway house for love
Where gettin' by is good enough
Until it's not
Somebody needs more
So we both keep holding back
Cause no love at all seems bad
So it's halfway in
Halfway out
Just going through the motions in this halfway house
You see it half empty
But to me it's half good
If we put it together
We might have one glass full
So meet me in the middle
Pour it on strong enough to make believe
That we're oh so close
Just waiting on a missing piece
We're in a halfway house for love
Where gettin' by is good enough
Until it's not
Somebody needs more
So we both keep holding back
Cause no love at all seems bad
So it's halfway in
Halfway out
Just going through the motions in this halfway house
You could go in all the way
Baby I could too
We could dive in head first
Into the deep blue
But we don't wanna risk it
Don't wanna sink if we can't swim
If we don't put our chips in
No way to lose no way to win
That leaves us in...
A halfway house for love
Where gettin' by is good enough
Until it's not
Somebody needs more
So we both keep holding back
Cause no love at all seems bad
So it's halfway in
Halfway out
Just going through the motions in this halfway house
In this halfway house
