Halfway Home

Up ahead there is a sign
Through the rain I see it shine
Givin off a neon light
On the highway in the night

Just a sign for food and gas
Trucks and cars go speeding past
But it is my milestone
Telling me I'm halfway home

To that old familiar place
To that sweet familiar face
Where they always take you in
No matter where you've been

Where you just kick off your shoes
Listen to the local news
I was lost, I was alone
But now I know I'm halfway home

Halfway home, halfway there
I can smell it in the air
I can feel it in my bones
Now I know I'm halfway home

There's a man who lived a life
On the edge of a knife
Chasing dreams and driving fast
But they slipped out of his grasp

Well it's true, how time does fly
In a flash it passes by
Sooner than he'll want to know
There he ist, he's halfway home
