More Like Home

Those walls knew all of me
And let me stay there anyway
That ceiling heard my teenage hurt
When I would close my eyes and pray
Wore out those floors
The night before the wildcats went to state
I always thought where I was raised
Would be my favorite place

But you feel more like freedom
Than bare feet in my backyard
You feel more like heaven
Than my bedroom window stars
I guess it doesn't matter
If you can't go back again
Cause you feel more like home
Than the house I grew up in

I sleep better in your arms
Than in my first twin bed
The blanket of your whispers
Calms the monsters in my head
Who I wanted to grow up to be
Is who I am with you
I thought that first time feeling
Was lost with my youth

But you feel more like freedom
Than bare feet in my backyard
You feel more like heaven
Than my bedroom window stars
And I guess it doesn't matter
If you can't go back again
Cause you feel more like home
Than the house I grew up in

When mom and dad
Sold that place
I swore I'd never forgive them
But I found out that home is more
Than just four walls you live in

Cause you feel more like freedom
Than bare feet in my backyard
You feel more like heaven
Than my bedroom window stars
And I guess it doesn't matter
That I can't go back again
Cause you feel more like home
Than the house I grew up in
