Half the time

You said, “Shelle, I’ll be there soon.”

Felt the gold light fading, on the front steps waiting, pretending you’d come through

Wanted you to show, with two fishing poles, take me from where I’d been

But I grew up, picking you up, most 2 ams

The ghosts you runaway with, tell you, you don’t need to change

They don’t love you like I do, it’ll be me who pays 

You smile at me and say you’re fine 

You say you’ll quit when you make up your mind 

Yeah those spirits keep you open and kind

 

Give me all your love

Cmon give me all your love

Give me all your love

Half the time

 

You said, “Shelle I feel like hell 

Ripped your paper gown, and your IVs out, you said I’ll do this by myself 

When I was younger, your were stronger, nothing wore you down 

You’d bring up the past, made me laugh, you have no memory for stories now 

 

The ghosts you runaway with, tell you, you don’t need to change

They don’t love you like I do, it’ll be me who pays

 

You smile at me and say you’re fine 

You say you’ll quit when you make up your mind 

Yeah those spirits keep you open and kind

 

Give me all your love

Cmon give me all your love

Give me all your love

Half the time
