Half Light

The weight is heavy, I know

I’m not ready to lift it, been better at letting it go

You’re a big school kid with a heart drawn out like a map

My ideas are much smaller, my brain is scattered at best

And I don’t think there’s anything left to know

I’m too tired tonight

And it goes, and goes, and goes

I saw you then, I looked right in your face

But you give me half light, the full thing I know it waits

I thought I’d see it in the sweet of the springtime

I thought I’d see you, somewhere down the line

But I don’t, oh no, no, no.

I’m too tired tonight

And it goes, and goes, and goes

I’ll remember you in the best of times

Your big school heart and a bottle of wine

You can treat me unkind tonight

But I won’t let that leave my side

I’ll think of you in the summertime

I’ll be alright, I’ll be happy tonight

I'm too tired tonight

And it goes, and goes, and goes.
