Half a pint is still a cup
A good amount to drink
Half a blink means so much more
As a secret wink
Half an earbud works just right
To hear two things at once
Half a pencil's all you need
To keep drawing for months
Half a shoe is best for sun
And splashing in the sea
Half a notebook feels just right
To write a short story
Half a secret's good enough
To keep your mind at bay
And that's the way it ought to be
Until I'm brave someday

Half a shoe is best for sun
And splashing in the sea
Half a notebook feels just right
To write a short story
Half a secret's good enough
To keep your mind at bay
And that's the way it ought to be
Until I'm brave someday
