Halfway there im halfway done
These two weeks there halfway done
But im halfway living without you
Half a life I got half the fun
I’m only feellin half the sun
Cause I m halfway living with out you
Every night its twice as long
Im only feelin half as strong
Im halfway livin with out you
Halfway here and halfway there
Its no good being half a pair
Halfway living with out you
This lonely life it takes its toll
Feels like im missing half my soul
Im halfway livin with out you
Half of this I gothalf of that
At night I wonder where the hell im at
Im halfway livin with out you

Today I have been on two boats and a plane a
A horse and a car and a taxi
The Caribbean sea it is all oer me
I’m soaking wet but I m happy
Islas de maiz I swim in your seas
Walk in your jungle and I do as I please
Islas de maiz I’m begging you please
Don’t make me go away
The man on the dock sings a song out to me
Welcome, welcome to our sun and our sea
His guitars out of tune but he sings happily
I toss him some coins and we go
CHORUS
The people I meet when I walk down your street
Smiles on their faces no shoes on their feet
They bake me my bread cook me good food to eat
I toss them some coins and I go
CHORUS
The biggest problem that I got this week
They got no ice cubes to put in my drink
The only worry that I got today
Counting the days till I go away
CHORUS

I promise not to do the things
I never wanted done to me
The father that I never had
That’s the one ill try to be
I promise never to get too old
Too angry or just blind
Whatever youre looking for
I will always help you find
I promise never to call you up
And ruin youre whole godddamn day
When the rain is falling down
Have a few nice words to say
I promise you my little boys
That how its gonna be
When you need a friend around
You can always count on me
When rain is falling down
You can always count on me
When the chilly winds blow round
You can always count on me
When you cant make a sound
You can always count on me
I promise not to do the things
I never wanted done to me
The father that I never had
That’s the one ill try to be

Dark Place
©2020 Dean M Boudouris
When I wake up in the morning
Try to greet the new day with a smile
Then I drink a few cups of coffee
And I sit and think a while
My city is burning down
I got Police coming round
I’m trying to get up
but its all just bringing me down
I’m going down to my dark place again
I’ll be back but I don’t know exactly when
I can see that the sun is shining
Thank, but I don’t need reminding
Going down to my dark place again
Sometimes things look a little better
And I think it’s gonna be OK
But I got too much information
Coming at me every day
When it all comes crashin down
I hope were still around
I hope there’s still a little
Love left in this town
But I’m Going down to my dark place again
I’ll be back but I don’t know exactly when
I can see it’s a beautiful day
Thanks but I don’t want to play
I’m going down to my dark place again
I can see that the sun is shining
Thank, but I don’t need reminding
Going down to my dark place again
