Half a chance
Of getting halfway back
Maybe half the heart
Always I put in
Twice as much
Spilling twice the time
Maybe twice the guts
Where do I begin?
Getting something done
Letting in the
Sunday rings
Monday brings
Half a chance again
Half the night
I'm lying half awake
Dreaming half a dream
It's always my mistake
A quarter mile
Beneath my beating chest
The lies a quarter rest
I can't seem to fake
Getting something done
Letting in the
Sunday rings
Monday brings
Half a chance again
You know
Blue sky, hopes and horoscopes
Agree in the end
That timing is
Your real friend
Your only friend
Half a chance
Of getting halfway back
To cracking half a smile
Once in a while
Once in a while...
Gimme half a chance
Of getting halfway back
To cracking half a smile
Once in a while
Of getting halfway back
Maybe half the heart
Always I put in
Twice as much
Spilling twice the time
Maybe twice the guts
Where do I begin?
Getting something done
Letting in the
Sunday rings
Monday brings
Half a chance again
Half the night
I'm lying half awake
Dreaming half a dream
It's always my mistake
A quarter mile
Beneath my beating chest
The lies a quarter rest
I can't seem to fake
Getting something done
Letting in the
Sunday rings
Monday brings
Half a chance again
You know
Blue sky, hopes and horoscopes
Agree in the end
That timing is
Your real friend
Your only friend
Half a chance
Of getting halfway back
To cracking half a smile
Once in a while
Once in a while...
Gimme half a chance
Of getting halfway back
To cracking half a smile
Once in a while
