Half Out of Habit - Eleanor McEvoy

She’s waking up in the night

Seeing her tears and wondering why

She’s waking up in the night

Seeing the years passing her by

And she stays longin' to go

Hopin' the hurt in her heart doesn’t show

And she stays, why?

I don’t know

Half out of habit and half out of nowhere to go

Oh, whatever became

Of a love so tense of a longing so great

She’s not saying he’s to blame

She’s just trying to make sense of a life that she hates

But she stays longin' to go

Hopin' the hurt in her heart doesn’t show

And she stays, why?

I don’t know

Half out of habit and half out of nowhere to go

She’s nowhere else to go

She’s hopin' the hurt in her heart doesn’t show

And she stays, why?

I don’t know

Half out of habit and half out of nowhere to go

Nowhere to go

She’s nowhere else to go

It’s a habit, don’t you know?
