Home

If I stayed in that house
If I lived in that town
I would still be alone
A winter of snow and stone
Frozen to the bone
Sadness wrapped around my mind
Nothing left but time
Wasting away
In this broken heart of mine

I forgot how to shine
I forgot that the sun was even alive
And now I’m here with you
So happy that I could be here
To tell this story to sing this song
Knowing now with so many things
In my life always going wrong
Something is finally
Going right

Knowing that tonight
Beauty remains I have a life worth living
And you make it a better place for me
To start giving
Can I make it a better place for you
To start receiving
The love you deserve
Do you have the nerve
To look me in the eye
And call this home

No more goodbyes
Always understanding
This is where you belong
With all of the loss
Every fight that you have fought
All the pain that you’ve been through
Has brought you here to me
So let down your walls
Open up to it all

Dry your tears
Calm your fears
Let the meltdown fade away
Into the flames of eternal forgiveness
All your confusion erased
And replaced with a kiss
My love is relentless
I am resiliently breathing
For the both of us

Knowing that tonight
Beauty remains we have a life worth living
And you make it a better place for me
To start giving
Can I make it a better place for you
To start receiving
The love you deserve
Do you have the nerve
To look me in the eye
And call this home

Call this home
Call this home
