Lyrics

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

You texted "you up?"

At 1:43

I stared at it longer

Than I needed to

I know your apartment

I know the way in

I know that look you get

When we're both giving in

My friends got tired

Of hearing your name

They stopped saying leave

And started saying "same"

Pre-Chorus

'Cause you're not mine

And I'm not gone

That's the problem

Chorus

We're halfway home

Before we make up our minds

Halfway out

And already crossing the lines

You put your hand in mine

Like nothing ever happened

Like we didn't swear

This was the last time

And I let you

God I always do

Verse 2

You still leave your jacket

On the back of my chair

Like part of you knows

You'll be back here

We talk about movies

We talk about work

We talk around everything

That actually hurts

Then you laugh at something

And I forget

Every reason

I was trying to quit

Pre-Chorus

You're bad at goodbye

I'm worse at it

That's the problem

Chorus

We're halfway home

Before we make up our minds

Halfway out

And already crossing the lines

You put your hand in mine

Like nothing ever happened

Like we didn't swear

This was the last time

And I let you

God I always do

Bridge

The city's asleep

Your head's on my shoulder

I know how this ends

I just wish it took longer

Final Chorus

We're halfway home

Every single time

Halfway healed

Then you show up and I rewind

You say you missed me

Like it's something small

Like that sentence

Doesn't wreck me at all

And I let it

I let it every time

We're halfway home

But we never arrive
