Half the Way Lyrics

Intro: (x2)
Verse 1:
Half of your love is just not what I'm after.
-s4
Part of your world is just - not what I need
Some of your time is like one glass of water;
-s4
Just leaves me thirsty for wine.
Chorus:
So fill me up to the top.
Oh, don't you stop till I'm over-flowing.
Love is the seed and babe,
I need you to keep it growing.
Stronger every day, oh, no.
Don't take me half the way. (Don't take me half the way)
Don't take me half the way. (Don't take me half the way)
Verse 2:
Never be--fore have I settled for second.
-s4
All of my life, I have hungered for more.
Now I can see where your sweet love can lead me.
-s4
This is what I've waited for.
Repeat Chorus:
(Modulate 1/2 step to Key of Bb)
Don't take me half the way. (Don't take me half the way)
Don't take me half the way. (Don't take me half the way)
Verse 3:
Half of your love is just not what I'm after, no.
Part of your world is just - not what I need.
Now I can see where your sweet love can lead me.
This is what I've waited for.
So fill me up to the top.
Oh, don't you stop till I'm over-flowing.
Love is the seed and babe,
I need you to keep it growing.
Stronger every day, oh, no.
Don't take me half the way. (Don't take me half the way)
Don't take me half the way. (Don't take me half the way)
Give me all your love. (Don't take me half the way)
Don't take me half the way. (Don't take me half the way)
Give me all your love. (Don't take me half the way)
Don't take me half the way. (Don't take me half the way)
Don't take me half the way. (Don't take me half the way)
(And for those that do not wish to change keys here it is in only the key of A)
