Halfway House by Bruce Carroll Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 2005

I was in limbo for so long
Stranded in the middle of right and wrong
Thought there was no place left to go
Till I finally found a place in town
I call my second home

Down at the halfway house somewhere between
Total rehab and working things out
The halfway house where I can come clean
Renew my faith and deal with my doubt
'Cause the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak
That's why most Sundays you'll find me
Laughing and crying and hanging my laundry out
Down at the halfway house

You've got to look beyond the altar and chairs
To really see what's going on there
You'll find walking wounded refugees
Together in a room hoping there's a love
Big enough to meet their needs
Down at the halfway house somewhere between
Total rehab and working things out
The halfway house where I can come clean
Renew my faith and deal with my doubt
'Cause the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak
That's why most Sundays you'll find me
Laughing and crying and hanging my laundry out
Down at the halfway house

It's kind of like a shelter in the wilderness
A little outpost station
Where sinners and saints can stop and rest
While they're waitin' on their relocation

Down at the halfway house somewhere between
Total rehab and working things out
The halfway house where I can come clean
Renew my faith and deal with my doubt
'Cause the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak
That's why most Sundays you'll find me
Laughing and crying and hanging my laundry out
Down at the halfway house

Come on to the halfway house
Let's go to the halfway house
To the halfway house
