Half Lyrics

She spent half her life a lookin’ for a better half to make her whole
Now she spends all her nights waitin for a man who won’t come home.
She had a half a mind to leave him, she had half a mind to stay.
She had half a tank in her Pontiac when she made her getaway.
She spent half that night a drivin’ to her sister’s in Santa Cruz
She had half her life to think about and everything to lose
She took half a week to find the strength to finally make the call
Yeah she’s better off takin half than when she had it all.

(Chorus)
She said I’ll take half of everything you own
I’ve been taking half all along
Half of your love, half of your time
She can have the other half that once was mine.
Half of their money, half of their home
Ain’t worth half the nights spent alone
Well she was crying but she got the last laugh
She said honey, honey I’ll take half.
The met halfway up the courthouse steps with their lawyers by their side
They spent half that day dividin’ up the past ten years of their lives
The judge said it ain’t hard to figure out if you’ll just do the math
Yeah ya’ll started off with everything now you’re endin’ up with half.
(Chorus)

She gave her whole heart to him when she said I do
Yeah her whole world came crashin’ down after what he put her through
All her whole life revolved around the promises he made
All she had to gain ain’t worth half the price she paid.

(Chorus)

Yeah once she was cryin’ but she got the last laugh
She said honey, honey I’ll take half.
