Verses

Chorus

Bridge

 i knew that i'd get like this again, that's why i try to keep at bay

 be a 100 percent when i'm with you and then

 the perfect heart's length away

 the stickler is your plague, not one beat wrong

 you never promised me anything

 even set me down, warn me just how they fall

 i knew the odds were i'd never win and here i am

 it's a half life

 with you as my quarterback

 a daft life

 myself worth measured in text-back tempo

 it's been two days and eight minutes too slow

 there may well be others but I still like to pretend

 that i'm the one you really want to grow old with

 i've got a schedule to stick to, got a world to keep sweet

 it's so much to everyone all the time

 will you ever slow down? will i ever come first?

 the universe contracts to size

it's a half life

 with you as my quarterback

 a daft life

it's a half life

 with you as my quarterback

 a daft life

( Optional)

oh, me

( Optional)

oh, me

( Optional)

oh, me

darling please

 you know you'll never be lonely no, you'll always be loved

 and maybe, you'll never need more than that

 of others sapless little loves, what's to become of us?

 does it even register on your conscience?

 long for one last showdown from a box in a crowd

 air compress tight to explode

 i'm clenching my ticket to the only way out

 as you disappear in a puff of smoke

its a half life

 with you as my quarterback

 a daft life

End on C. Or G. whatever you prefer. C = happy ending, G = Sad ending in my opinion.
