Well I know just what it is you want the way you love and get enough and then you move on
You play the game of who you need and learn his name and walk away to find the next one
You say the things your looking for look past me and door to door
But darling did you think I wouldn't know.

[Chorus:]
I might not be what you want
I'm gonna be your halfway
I might not be what you need
But I'm gonna be the way
I'm never gonna be the thing you want
But I'm gonna be your halfway
I might not be what you need
I'm gonna be your halfway
(halfway, I'll be your halfway, halfway, I'll be your halfway)

[Verse 2:]
You like to close your eyes and nod and picture him and what he'd say and what he looks like
But all I can think is all the dreams in the world that can match up to the real thing, the real thing.

[Chorus:]
I might not be what you want
I'm gonna be your halfway
I might not be what you need
But I'm gonna be the way
I'm never gonna be the thing you want
But I'm gonna be your halfway
I might not be what you need
I'm gonna be your halfway.

[Bridge:]
I'm gonna be forever yours
Don't you dare believe her, no
I'm gonna be forever yours
She's always gonna let you go
I could stay up wait the whole night
But she's never gonna show.

[Chorus:]
I might not be what you want
I'm gonna be your halfway
I might not be what you need
But I'm gonna be the way
I'm never gonna be the thing you want
But I'm gonna be your halfway
I might not be what you need
I'm gonna be your halfway.

I might not be what you want (I'm gonna be forever yours)
Baby I won't be what you want
I might not be what you need
But I'm gonna be the way ya
I'm never gonna be the thing you want (I'm gonna be forever yours)
But I'm gonna be your halfway
I might not be what you need
But I'm gonna be your halfway.
