FI'Gve got a quarter in my pocket of an apple left to eat:
FItG's a wonder that I'm standing on my own two feet.
FInG the shadow of a thousand veiled Victorian goodbyes
FJeGwels of litter come to greet me, and it stings my eyes.
FOhG it burns like a fire and it pulls me through-
FWeG are parted by desire for the strange and new.
FI'Gve got a quarter in my pocket, I'm advancing to the booth,
FI Gam picking up and praying that I talk to you.
DAnAd now, I'm halfway home,
CI'm at the corner of our street,
GWould you like to come and meet me?
DNoAw that I am halfway home
CMan, I never felt so lonely-
GI Dlong for you to hold me now I'm home.
Somedays, there was comfort as a stranger far from home
Sometimes, a hunger and a longing not to be alone.
Imagining emotion in each man that I would meet-
But it was physics, and subtraction, to an ancient beat.
Oh, it burned like a fire and I wore it so...
We are tied up in desire and we won't let go.
Well, I've no quarter in my pocket of no apple left to eat;
I am running, I am running and I can't feel my feet.
And now, I'm halfway home, I'm at the corner of our street,
Would you like to come and meet me?
Now that I'm halfway home
Man, I never felt so lonely-
I long for you to hold me
GNoAw I'm home, home is where I wanna be,
GNoAw I'm home, home is where I'm gonna be.
GPaAst the church and past the steeple,
GPaAst the sad and lonely people,
GPaAst the old school on the avenue,
GI Aam running, I am running...
And now, I'm halfway home, I'm at the corner of our street,
Would you like to co9me and meet me
Now that I'm halfway home
Man, I never felt so lonely-
I long for you to hold me now I'm home.
