Halfway There

Tick tock, goes the clock
I should be passed out like a rock, but I'm a
Lying here, wide awake, with a
Little voice that I can't shake

I think back to times gone by
Lord, weren't we riding high
How did it come to pass, that we just
Had to grow up so fast

But I... I'm only halfway there
And I... I'm only halfway there

Smell of perfume in the air
Rush of blood, without a care, and we've got
Hands touching, out of sight
Day chases away the night

You say it seems so long ago
But in my mind, it's just not so
The silly kid still lives in me
It's my own way of staying free

'Cause I... I'm only halfway there
And I... I'm only halfway there
It's true! It's true! It's true! It's true

Young buck, he struts so cool
Says "Old man, don't act the fool
You had your time, so now won't you step aside..." But listen

Never mind the time on the clock
It's what you do with the time you've got, so
Waiter! One more round 'cause we're just getting started

'And I... I'm only halfway there
And I... I'm only halfway there
It's true! It's true! It's true! It's true

Good times, round the bend
I'm getting ready to hit that road again
Won't you get in and come for a ride with me
