about

Heard this song on youtube, where John Mayer was showing how he was recording it in his home, much like I do. He was using Pro Tools, I'm using Audacity (Free Mac/PC OS). One mic. One keyboard. This is probably my best engineering/production to date with my little Rube Goldberg home studio setup. Enjoy. Ah yes, I did the ol' "Self As Art" photoshop of the John Mayer album cover this song came from. hehe

lyrics

I was born in the arms of imaginary friends
Free to roam, made a home out of everywhere I've been
Then you come crashing in, like the realest thing
Trying my best to understand all that your love can bring

Oh half of my heart's got a grip on the situation
Half of my heart takes time
Half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you
That I can't keep loving you (can't keep loving you)
Oh, with half of my heart

I was made to believe I'd never love somebody else
I made a plan, stay the man who can only love himself
Lonely was the song I sang, 'til the day you came
Showing me another way and all that my love can bring

Oh half of my heart's got a grip on the situation
Half of my heart takes time
Half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you
That I can't keep loving you (can't keep loving you)
Oh, with half of my heart
With half of my heart

Your faith is strong
But I can only fall short for so long
Down the road, later on
You will hate that I never gave more to you than half of my he art
But I can't stop loving you
I can't stop loving you [x3]
But I can't stop loving you with half of my...

Half of my heart
Oh-oh half of my heart

Half of my heart's got a real good imagination
Half of my heart's got you
Half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you
That half of my heart won't do

Half of my heart is a shotgun wedding to a bride with a paper ring
And half of my heart is the part of a man who's never truly loved anything

Half of my heart
Oh-oh half of my heart
[Fade]
