Halfway Home

Restless in the autumn wind

when the leaves begin to fall.

Mama says I'm lost again

but it's not like that at all.

I'm just a child that's grown

and I guess that she don't know

that I'm halfway home.

Look at all the troubles I see,

don't they turn my head around!

But Mama, don't you worry 'bout me,

I don't let it bring me down.

Someday it may get old

somewhere down this road.

Now I'm only halfway home.

I done quit all my worldly ways

and I left my past behind

and you can see it in my face

all about my restless mind

but babe, you don't know

how the cold wind blows

when you're only halfway home.

Halfway Home

Restless in the autumn wind

when the leaves begin to fall.

Mama says I'm lost again

because I didn't answer her call,

and I guess she doesn't know

how her child has grown

and that I'm halfway home.

Look at all the troubles I see,

don't they turn my head around!

But Mama, don't you worry 'bout me,

I don't let it bring me down.

Someday it may get old

somewhere down this road

but now I'm only halfway home.

I heard the call, I answered it

and I left my past behind.

Along the way, the road has turned a bit

so I keep my compass in sight.

I guess I've got a lot more to go

and how the cold wind blows

when you're only halfway home.
