I Just Wanna Go Home (Radio Version)
They took me away from my family
They told me that it's what's best for me
But nobody loves me here
And nobody holds me dear
When I'm lonely at night, and shaken with fright
There's no one around to calm my fear
So now I'm behind a new front door
There's food and a bed, but not much more
They say I'm a precious gem
But I'm just a check to them
They act like they care, and smile everywhere
They don't even really know who I am
I just wanna go home
Where the feelings of love were free to roam
I just wanna go home
Where life was as perfect as a poem
I just wanna go home
It's the only safe place that I'll ever know
I just wanna go home
Where the spirit inside me was free to grow
I can't even pretend that I just don't care
I don't deserve this! It's just not fair
Because just one line was crossed
Now I have to pay the cost
Mom made one mistake, and what a heartache
And now all my childhood memories are lost
But I'm gonna hold to what's left of my pride
And keep all this anger locked up inside
I just gotta hope and pray
Believe in my dreams just one more day
It's what mom would want. Our one special bond
And they're never gonna take that away
I just wanna go home
Where the feelings of love were free to roam
I just wanna go home
Where life was as perfect as a poem
I just wanna go home
It's the only safe place that I'll ever know
I just wanna go home
Where the spirit inside me was free to grow
But what do I do when I can't go on
What do I do when my hope is gone
I'll see you again, but it takes so long
What do I do when I'm not that strong
A few hours a month, it's just never enough
Saying goodbye now is gonna be tough
I'll see you again, but it feels like years
I'm so angry inside, I can't hold back the tears
What about me? What about me?
Nobody cares where I'd rather be
Nobody listens to me
Hey, mama one thing. Just listen to me
How can I get through and make you see
Don't let them take your faith away
It's hard but just sit down and pray
That's what I do, and you should, too
Then maybe we'll be a family someday
I just wanna go home
Where the feelings of love were free to roam
I just wanna go home
Where life was as perfect as a poem
I just wanna go home
It's the only safe place that I'll ever know
I just wanna go home
Where the spirit inside me was free to grow
They told me that it's what's best for me
But nobody loves me here
And nobody holds me dear
When I'm lonely at night, and shaken with fright
There's no one around to calm my fear
So now I'm behind a new front door
There's food and a bed, but not much more
They say I'm a precious gem
But I'm just a check to them
They act like they care, and smile everywhere
They don't even really know who I am
I just wanna go home
Where the feelings of love were free to roam
I just wanna go home
Where life was as perfect as a poem
I just wanna go home
It's the only safe place that I'll ever know
I just wanna go home
Where the spirit inside me was free to grow
I can't even pretend that I just don't care
I don't deserve this! It's just not fair
Because just one line was crossed
Now I have to pay the cost

And now all my childhood memories are lost

And keep all this anger locked up inside

Where the feelings of love were free to roam

Where life was as perfect as a poem

Where life was as perfect as a poem
I just wanna go home
It's the only safe place that I'll ever know
I just wanna go home
Where the spirit inside me was free to grow
