HALF THE MOON
(Hugh Prestwood)


Tanya Tucker - 1992



        

Half the moon is shining tonight and half the moon is pitch black
And I got half a chance that you might turn around and come back
Half my love is seeing the light, half my love is still blind
Keeps on thinking tomorrow you'll change your mind

Half our hearts were doing just fine and half our hearts were in doubt
Half the time while walking the line, I ended up stepping out
Half my prayers were praying to God, half my prayers were to you
Tonight it looks like the answers are overdue

And I'm feeling just how hard half the moon can pull
I swear my heart might crack in two if that moon were full

Half the moon is shining tonight and half the moon's up and gone
You must have taken half of its light to find the road that you're on
Half my love is seeing the truth, half my love is still blind
And makes that missing half the moon hard to find, oh-oh
It makes that missing half of the moon hard to find
