It’s been a long time a’comin’, this feelin’ you bring on;
Those lonesome years, and unshed tears, were worth it all along.
There’s only one thing I’m not sure of; I’m not sure of me.
Some stranger’s got my eyes on you, as far as I can see.
I’ve got half a mind to love you; seems nothin’ else will do.
The other half went crazy, when I first laid eyes on you.
I was halfway gone and goin’, before I’d heard your name;
I’ve got half a mind to love you, before I go insane.
There was a time when I was proud, of standin’ on my own,
But after years of standin’, I’m still standin’ all alone;
But now with you beside me, I’m not sure where I stand;
There’s only one thing that I’m sure of; you’ve made me what I am.
I’ve got half a mind to love you; seems nothin’ else will do.
The other half went crazy, when I first laid eyes on you.
I was halfway gone and goin’, before I’d heard your name;
I’ve got half a mind to love you, before I go insane.
