Half a Man Songtext
von Andrew Strong

I know you′re not the only woman in the world
There's a lot of people, baby
More than half of them girls
I hear you saying you′ll be doing me a favor
To eliminate our problems, to be going our ways
Well, I've been walking in the cool blue light
And the day is over but it isn't quite night
I′ve been thinking about the meaning of real love
Hey, girl, I would be half a man if I gave you up
I would be half a man if I said I′d had enough
Half a man can take the easy way out
Half the men in the world would do it
But girl, that's not what love′s about
Ain't nothing easy about this growing up
We′re gonna have to do it, girl, if we're lucky
That don′t mean we can't have a little fun
It doesn't mean that we renounce the joy of being young
It only means that there′s a new set of rules
You can′t just run off when you're hurt and confused


When we were children we were free to act like a child
Girl, I would be half a man if I gave you up
I would be half a man if I said I′d had enough
Half a man can take the easy way out
Half the men in the world would do it
But girl, that's not what love′s about
You wanna run and I wanna fight on and on
For your love, for your precious love
You're worth it, baby
I would be half a man if I gave you up
I would be half a man if I said I′d had enough
Half a man can take the easy way out
Half the men in the world would do it
But girl, that's not what love's about
Half a man
Half a man if I said I′d had enough
Half a man can take the easy way out
Half the men in the world would do it
But girl, that′s not what love's about
