half answer Lyrics

Take your time

I'll be here

Feeling "fine"

(In quotation marks)

Ill defined

Let me know

Draw the line

That's what keeps me up

It's only half an answer

Neither seem to know

What's going wrong

Could I buy some time

If I just hold your hand or

Have I already held on too long?

That's what keeps me up

It's only half an answer

Neither seem to know

Just what went wrong

Sifting through the pieces

Of a small disaster

Will we be ok

Please don't be gone long

Write it down

Think a bit

Scratch it out

Think about

Say hello

Am I allowed?

You say you need more space

Well honey you can get it

But this will be the last time

I don't have much more to go

Before I'm falling off the planet

Every time you leave me reeling

And if this is the last time then can I have just

A sec to tell you how I'm feeling?

That's what keeps me up

It's only half an answer

Neither seem to know

What's going wrong

Could I buy some time

If I just hold your hand or

Have I already held on too long?

That's what keeps me up

It's only half an answer

Neither seem to know

Just what went wrong

Sifting through the pieces

Of a small disaster

Will we be ok

Please don't be gone long
