Lyrics Halfway To Richmond - Iron & Wine

Halfway To Richmond

I’ll make supper for myself, I’ll watch the clock upon the shelf
I’ll clean this broken house you denied
Is your time much better spent by givin' such a small percent
To every pleasantry that I’ve tried?
What’s this ugly thing I see?
When was this cold and uncomely
Animosity begotten?
Fuckin' with the lights left on 'til every ounce of strength was gone
Is there something you’d forgotten?
When a new sun warms the bedroom wall
I’ll be halfway to Richmond
I’m the fool just to care at all
You’re the free vagabond
London Bridge is fallin' down and Simon says to turn around
These games ain’t too fun when you’re grown
Where’d you go, and why’d you leave?
I’ll close my eyes and count to three
Then hurry up and wait by the phone
When a new sun warms the bedroom wall
I’ll be halfway to Richmond
I’m the fool just to care at all
You’re the free vagabond
