Half Full Glass of Wine Lyrics

Said you wouldn't be home late tonight
I gave up waiting at seventeen past midnight
Now my only company's a half full glass of wine

You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge.

It's been so long since I held your hand, you don't know how hard it can be.

I Thank god I've been blessed with a patient mind
Because what I want to happen won't happen in a very long time.
Now my only company's a half full glass of wine.

I Like it how the song is about his girlfriend being inconsistent or untrustworthy but he still refers to his glass as half full...

Such a hot song, has a real 60s/70s laid back sexy rock edge to it.

Obvious for me, his girlfriend has left him and now alcohol is his only company.

Love the guitar riffs in this one.

Well it sounds like his girlfriend is inconsistent and not putting enough effort into relationship. But I get a feeling that even though he's kind of angry and left alone, he will still wait for her to turn around in the future. Maybe she went away for a long time and he is kind of hinting that maybe, maybe he will still take her back or smth.

He hopes this time she’ll be honest and say what she truly means. He waits for her to come back and in desperation drinks. He’s drunken half of the glass and she still hasn’t returned…..he misses her and how they used to be. He seems to be willing to wait longer for her but at the same time wants to make her feel the same harmful way she made HIM feel.
