LOS ANGELES
Starting south on Genesee,
Turn east toward the Los Angeles sun
For a Melrose mile or three
Merging to the 101.
Meet you halfway,
Halfway…

NEW YORK
Starting south on Seventh Ave.,
Go the Holland Tunnel way
And depending how much traffic you have,
Ten to forty minutes from N.Y. to N.J.
Meet you halfway,
Halfway,
Halfway…

LOS ANGELES
Six months since I’ve SEEN you
Six months since you went away

10 to the 605
To the Foothill Freeway east,
Take the 15 to the 40 and drive
Oh’s-about eight hundred miles, at least.
Meet you halfway,
Halfway…
W/ NEW YORK
Halfway,
Halfway,
Lover, I am on my way.

LOS ANGELES
Mountain Road, Colorado
As the weed in Oklahoma rolls

NEW YORK
West Express, Pennsylvania Turnpike
As the road to West Virginia tolls…                                   
And tolls
And tolls and...

LOS ANGELES (simul.)
Did I pass it?
Have I passed it?
Where’s the 470 East?

NEW YORK
Using 70 as a proxy
Across seven states to the Kansas border,
Steal the seven for Tonganoxie,
Get some gas and speed on t’ward ‘er.

Almost halfway,

LOS ANGELES
Exit 204 to East Lawrence,
Onto Entrance Road…

NEW YORK
Halfway,

LOS ANGELES
US-40 East and right on Fourth Street
In Tonganoxie                                               

NEW YORK
Half...
Six miles till I see you

LOS ANGELES
Six miles till you’re in my arms.

BOTH
Oh, oh, oh—!

LOS ANGELES (THEN NEW YORK)
Now I’m here in this Kansas town,
(Now I’m here in this Kansas town)
And I’ve come so very far.
(Think I killed my rental car.)
Pammy-Sue’s has the best cake around
(Pammy-Sue’s is what I’ve written down)
I walk in, and

BOTH
There you are…

LOS ANGELES (THEN NEW YORK)
Thirty steps away…
(Twenty steps away…)
Just a breath away…
(In my arms you Stay)

BOTH
Oh, stay.
Stay.
Stay.

LOS ANGELES
God, I haven’t even rested…
Driving twenty hours today.

NEW YORK
So did I. 

LOS ANGELES
Well you MapQuested.

NEW YORK

LOS ANGELES
Okay.

BOTH
Hmm…
Hmm…
Hm.
