Tammy Wynette - Half the Way Home lyrics

It was two country miles from your house to mine When we were just kids untouched by time I'd ask you to walk me home part of the way Then I'd walk you back some and we'd stop to play So it would go till daylight was gone Walking each other half the way home It's been too rare to find a friendship as true And I felt the same faced walking with you Sharing our feelings from deep down inside Wakes you from the heart what we've since learned to hide Of all that I've done the best thing I've known Was walking a good friend half the way home We should put some miles on that windey dirt road Talking of life and how far we could go It was early one summer and dreams were still new The last time I walked it with you I've come two thousand miles after way too much time I've burned up the road to your house from mine I hope it's not too late to talk for a while Cause God's got you walking your last lonely mile And I knew you'd be too scared to do it alone So I've come to walk you half the way home
