Half As Good Lyrics

Half As Good

When you waltzed into the room  

 I could see you really knew how to dance  

 And when you looked my way  

 I knew that I had even less of a chance  

 Is it better to stand alone  

 Than to play the overblown fool?  

 Ah but it’s too late I’m wrapped up  

  

 Save the looks for the movie stars  

 Save yourself from the truth you get in bars  

 Yeah I’m so sick of those rock ‘n roll guitars  

 Turn the lights down real low  

 That way we’re all perfectible  

 What ‘s the point in being unattainable  

  

 ‘Cause I’m half as good as you  

 And that ain’t bad  

  

 Lovers come and go  

 But with you it’s not quite like that  

 You leaned over and kissed my soul  

 And left me wondering where my center was at  

 You said there’s no use being lonely  

 When you’re the only one to blame  

 And now I guess it’s still the same
