"Meet Me Halfway" by Afikile Dlakavu

  • 1

Verse 1:
I remember a time
When we loved like there's no tomorrow.
I was your half
And you always made me better

We were crazy in love
We were a fire burning raging
We were one for the ages
A legend in the making

It was with trust that we built
This mountain dwarfing Everest
So mighty so strong
I thought it would never go wrong

Chorus:
Every now and then I see the fire in your eyes
Withering, it flashes on and off and on and off
How I wish that I could rid us, of the act that caused this chasm
Could you please just meet me halfway

Verse 2:
To see us tumble and fall
To see us drowning in the rubble
What took us years to build up
It crumbled in an instant

To hold you so close
And feel the distance that's between us
Sweet bitter bliss
A pain that I prefer

Because I'd rather stay
In this hole that we've created
In the hope that one day
We'll finally find a way out

Chorus
Every now and then I see the fire in your eyes
Withering, it flashes on and off and on and off
How I wish that I could rid us , of the act that caused this chasm
Could you please just meet me halfway

Verse 3:
I dream of the day
We finally rise up from the ashes
Forge a new path
Give our love a brand new vigour

It won’t be tomorrow
Let’s leave time to give us healing
We'll pick up the pieces
We'll summon the strength

For we've felt a love
A love that can't be fathomed
A love worth the fight
A fight we must win

Chorus
Every now and then I see the fire in your eyes
Withering, it flashes on and off and on and off
How I wish that I could rid us, of the act that caused this chasm
Could you please just meet me halfway
