Home Lyrics

I love the smell of fresh-cut grass, storm clouds passin' through

Remember that angel made of glass I broke when I was two

We rode our bikes and skinned our knees, ate popsicles at night

Dad taught us to tell right from wrong, most times we chose right

Home, it feels so bittersweet

It holds a special place for us, it speaks to you, it speaks to me

Home, it's where we both belong

But no matter where we go from here, we share a special bond

I took Katie to the prom and she left me alone

You cracked me up when I got home, had supper on the stove

And when you moved away from here to make a brand new start

I didn't let you see my tears, but it broke my heart

Home, it's where we had our fights

It's where our girlfriends broke our hearts, we spent sleepless nights

Home, God, it's been so long

But no matter where we go from here, we share a special bond

I hate this brought us back here, it's not how I'd have liked

I never thought I'd bury you, you've been there all my life

You said we'd share a drink the day that I turned 21

But now I sit here all alone, I drink with your headstone

Home, I guess it's not a place

Instead it seems to have been a heart, another's warm embrace

Home, not quite what it once was

But I'll do my best without you here, give Mom and Dad my love
