This song took entirely to long to record. Most of my time was spent on the bridge solo, I wanted to do something different so I decided to use these orchestra string samples and make like a string quartet. Took a lot of fumbling around and a lot of

Lyrics
“HALF WAY HOME” by David Bride
The longest trip is always the road home,
Seems like it goes on forever into the unknown,
Life on the highway ain't no life to lead,
I have a loving wife at home and three mouths to feed,
(Chorus)
Another discount motel room
And I'm tired of sleeping alone,
To many miles on this endless highway
And I'm still half way home
The time without you seems to never end,
Till I can hold you in my arms and whisper amen,
The love that you give to me keeps me going on,
Driving all through the night from dusk till the dawn,
(Chorus)
Another discount motel room
And I'm tired of sleeping alone,
To many miles on this endless highway
And I'm still half way home,
(Bridge) Instrumental
The sweetest trip is always the road home,
To be back with my family among my own,
Life on the highway ain't no life to lead,
Someday soon I won't ever have to leave,
(Chorus)
Another discount motel room
And I'm tired of sleeping alone,
To many miles on this endless highway
And I'm still half way home.
Another discount motel room
And I'm tired of sleeping alone,
To many miles on this endless highway
But I'm almost home,
