Home Lyrics

At this party I'm dodging your eyes, looking over once more

The night is cold and everyone around looks like they've been here before

And it's weird to see you happy and drinking

Too many shots and you were back at thirteen crying in the kitchen

I know midnights remind you of me

But your new girl, she's so pretty

I'm not "your person"

Take back those words, I'm dying to let this go

And don't approach me with some poetic bullshit letter that you wrote

It'll never come close to that feeling we called

Home

You're familiar with a kind, gentle smile and the same quiet eyes

Used to walk me home down Elly Road under calm autumn skies

Now it's strange that you probably say her name when you're laughing

I know I could pick out your voice through the noise of Manhattan

The moon makes you think of me

But your new girl, she's so sunny

I'm not "your person"

Take back those words I'm dying to let this go

And don't you send me some lovelorn secret letter that you wrote

It'll never come close to that feeling we called
