Halfway Love

Halfway Love

Verse 1

I gave you pieces I can’t get back,

Every dream, every little crack.

Thought you were the fire I’d been praying for,

But you only knocked and never opened the door.

Pre-Chorus

I thought I was your someone,

But I was just your sometime.

You wanted my body,

I wanted your lifetime.

Chorus

But attention’s not love,

Curiosity’s not enough.

You can look from afar,

But you’ll never touch my heart.

I’m not falling back,

I’ve been through too much.

I need more than a halfway love.

Verse 2

I see your shadow on my screen,

Ghost of a man you’ll never be.

Fake names, fake faces, still chasing me down,

But silence is the strongest sound.

Pre-Chorus

I thought I was your someone,

But I was just your sometime.

You wanted my body,

I wanted your lifetime.

Chorus

But attention’s not love,

Curiosity’s not enough.

You can look from afar,

But you’ll never touch my heart.

I’m not falling back,

I’ve been through too much.

I need more than a halfway love.

Bridge

One day you’ll realize what you let slip away,

But by then I’ll be stronger, I won’t hear you say—

“Baby I miss you, I wish we had more.”

I’ll already be walking through another door.

Final Chorus

Attention’s not love,

Curiosity’s not enough.

You can haunt my feed,

But you’ll never have my trust.

I’m not falling back,

I’ve been through too much.

I’m saving my heart

For a whole, not a halfway love.
