We been walking this same road, shoulder to shoulder One of us is gonna have to be the first to turn I know I been the one to hold the map too tight Kept the score, marked the wrongs, folded up the light But I laid it down last night, left it on the floor I took the step that cost me everything I had before Now I'm standing at the edge where the pavement ends And I'm not asking you to say you'll let me in Just tell me you can see me from where you stand I done my part, I walked the line Left a trail of my own pride behind The door is open, the light is on But you gotta move from where you've gone I can't carry us both the rest of the way I just need you to meet me halfway You always said you'd come around when the dust was clear Well the dust is gone and I'm still standing here I stopped counting all the times you turned away I stopped trying to find the words to make you stay I'm not reaching for some perfect apology I'm just asking for a little geography A little less distance between you and me I done my part, I walked the line Left a trail of my own pride behind The door is open, the light is on But you gotta move from where you've gone I can't carry us both the rest of the way I just need you to meet me halfway I'm not the one who drew the line in the sand I'm just the one who's still got a hand Reaching out across the silence you keep But I can't climb a mountain you won't let me see (One more step, one more mile) I'll be waiting right here, but I won't beg for a smi I done my part, I walked the line Left a trail of my own pride behind The door is open, the light is on But you gotta move from where you've gone I can't carry us both the rest of the way (No, I can't carry us both) I just need you to meet me halfway (Meet me halfway) (Just a little closer) (I'll be right here)
