Half Between Us

I count the days like cracks across the wall

Your name is the only thing I call

A photograph is all I get tonight

I hold it close and turn off every light

Everybody says that time will change

But every mile just makes the hurt more strange

Braxton, I barely get to see you

But I feel you in everything I do

Peace is breaking underneath this waiting

Loving you is beautiful and devastating If distance is a test,

I’m failing fast I’m living for a moment that won’t last Braxton,

tell me how am I supposed to breathe When the only place

I want you is right here with me

I save your messages and play them low

Like little sparks from somewhere I can go

You say you miss me,

I say I’m okay

Then fall apart the second you fade away

I know your voice but not your everyday

I know your heart and still you slip away

Braxton, I barely get to see you

But I feel you in everything I do

Peace is breaking underneath this waiting

Loving you is beautiful and devastating If distance is a test,

I’m failing fast I’m living for a moment that won’t last Braxton,

tell me how am I supposed to breathe When the only place

I want you is right here with me

If I could borrow one more hour I’d spend it underneath your

arms

No goodbye hanging in the doorway No pretending that I’m strong I

don’t need forever promised

I just need tonight to stay

Because every time you leave me Something in me fades away

Braxton, I barely get to see you Still you’re in every dream

I’m falling

through

Peace is breaking, but I can’t stop waiting

Loving you is beautiful and devastating If distance is a test,

I’m failing fast I’m holding to the pieces of the past Braxton,

tell me how am I supposed to breathe When the only place

I want you is right here with me Right here with me

Please come back to me
