Halfway Whole (Stripped) Lyrics

I'm packin up my things and leavin this old life behind

I'm looking for a place, where it's warm and the sunlight shines

But there's a piece of me that I can't bring

Hurts like hell watching you fade in the rearview

But it's something I gotta do, yeah

Oh Ohio, I've gotta go, gotta leave you in the past

Oh I don't know, how long it'll take but if I stay on the gas

I'm gonna get there, where I can find my soul

Cuz your memory, won't seem to let me be

More than halfway whole

I know you used to say, when I get called home don't shed no tears

But taking it day by day, is easier said than done when you're not here

And I know you're up there now watchin over me, so I hope you'll understand

Why I need this change of scene, yeah

Oh Ohio, I've gotta go, gotta leave you in the past

Oh I don't know, how long it'll take but if I stay on the gas

I'm gonna get there, where I can find my soul

Cuz your memory, won't seem to let me be

More than halfway whole

Halfway whole

And I hope you know I'm not trying to forget

The lessons you taught me or the times that we had

And it helps to know, I'll see you again my friend, but until then

Oh Ohio, gotta go, gotta leave you in the past

Oh I don't know, how long it'll take but if I stay on the gas

I'm gonna get there, where I can find my soul

Cuz your memory, won't seem to let me be

More than halfway whole

Halfway whole

Yeah yeah

Halfway whole
