Tom Walker - Better Half Of Me Lyrics

Tom Walker Lyrics

"Better Half Of Me"

You'll always be my number one
A whole lot more than good enough
I'm giving everything I've got
To gain every second lost
Six years just ain't enough

With you, I'm happy being me
I don't pretend 'cause I don't need to
I'm a thousand miles from home
Never on my own
When you whisper down the phone

Well I guess we never saw this coming
Halfway around the world calling
But I just want you to know

That I'd have all I need
If you were standing right in front of me
I'll finally see
What it means to be complete
Don't need to spend our lives chasing gold
Anywhere with you, I'll call my home, oh
I'd have all I need
If you'd be the better half of me

I'm still up, it's 4 AM
Is this Amsterdam or Berlin?
Yeah, I'm just waiting for the day
I'll finally get to say
These words face to face

Well I guess we never saw this coming
Halfway around the world calling
But I just want you to know

That I'd have all I need
If you were standing right in front of me
I'll finally see
What it means to be complete
Don't need to spend our lives chasing gold
Anywhere with you, I'll call my home, oh
I'd have all I need
If you'd be the better half of me

I'd have all I need
If you were standing right in front of me
I'll finally see
What it means to be complete
Don't need to spend our lives chasing gold
Anywhere with you, I'll call my home, oh
I'd have all I need
If you'd be the better half of me
If you'd be the better half of me
Yeah, will you be the better half of me?
Will you be the better half of me?

Tom Walker revealed on Instagram on the 4th of October 2019, "It's a song I've written about being away on the road quite a bit. We've been doing a hundred and twenty five gigs each year. I got engaged the year ago and I've seen my fiancé about twenty five times since then. [...] So, yeah: if you're all lonely and your partner's away, and you love a good cry, this is the song for you."
