Lyrics
I was licking my wounds and so damn downhearted
My head spinning from what came before
Feeling tumbled and tossed from the things that I'd lost
Then our paths crossed and you found my door
I couldn't have wished for someone as caring
Gently wearing my heart on your sleeve
You got me back on my feet, could someone be this sweet?
Your eyes tell me it's safe to believe
We don't always know the direction we're going
But it's better than traveling alone
I feel things getting better, I think we're halfway home
I can't wait to go to your folks' house for dinner
We're not talking 'bout Paris or Rome
I feel things getting better, I think we're halfway home
You and I getting started and being together
It feels like we're planting a seed
We may not have much, but it seems like enough
Tell me how much do we really need?
Of course I'll still love you with holes in your sweater
You've the warmest smile I've ever known
I feel things getting better, I think we're halfway home
We have love in our wallets and hope in our pockets
And plenty of dreams all our own
I feel things getting better, I think we're halfway home
We're halfway home...
