lyrics

I wish I’d kept better track of you, dear,
because it seems so silly now to press ‘restart.’
We could try to make some resolution for the new year,
but what good would it do when we don’t care
like we used to.

I wish I’d danced a little more with you, dear,
when I hear a song that we once loved.
I feel the air I used to feel with you here,
blowing through the spaces we once filled.
But we’re never coming back again to…

Home is where you are.

I’m moving out of the house where I spent my life,
where the trees trickled beams of a spotted light
of the sun or the moon in through my window.
I laid here, I stayed here, and I played in the dirt.
I grew up, I knew that it’d eventually hurt,
but not this much… I didn’t think I’d feel so alone
being torn from everything I’ve known, but…

Home is where you are.

Don’t make me come inside yet,
can’t I just spend the night?
Don’t tell me not to do this,
when all I want is to get closer to the place I feel at…
Home is where you are
in my heart.
