Not My Home (Basement Sessions)
I've moved around enough to know
There's no such thing as home
You go back where you used to live
And find that life moved on
That neighborhood still looks same
That old house seems so small
Same old streets but memories
Are all you're standing on
My eyes have never seen it
But I know that it exists
Something in my soul says
There's a better place than this
I'm a stranger in my own skin
Cause there's Eden in my bones
If home is where the heart is
Then this world is not my home
Chasing ancient whispers
That won't let me settle down
Wandering through the wilderness
So far from my hometown
It's just across the Jordan
Not so distant promised land
How can I be so homesick
For a place I've never been
My eyes have never seen it
But I know that it exists
Something in my soul says
There's a better place than this
I'm a stranger in my own skin
Cause there's Eden in my bones
If home is where the heart is
Then this world is not my
There's a front porch
With a Father waiting
There's a family
Gathered round the table
No more goodbyes
No letting go
That's how I'll know
I'm finally home
My eyes have never seen it
But I know that it exists
Something in my soul says
There's a better place than this
I'm a stranger in my own skin
Cause there's Eden in my bones
If home is where the heart is
Then this world is not my home
There's no such thing as home
You go back where you used to live
And find that life moved on
That neighborhood still looks same
That old house seems so small
Same old streets but memories
Are all you're standing on
My eyes have never seen it
But I know that it exists
Something in my soul says
There's a better place than this
I'm a stranger in my own skin
Cause there's Eden in my bones
If home is where the heart is
Then this world is not my home
Chasing ancient whispers
That won't let me settle down
Wandering through the wilderness
So far from my hometown
It's just across the Jordan
Not so distant promised land
How can I be so homesick
For a place I've never been
My eyes have never seen it
But I know that it exists
Something in my soul says
There's a better place than this
I'm a stranger in my own skin
Cause there's Eden in my bones
If home is where the heart is
Then this world is not my
There's a front porch
With a Father waiting
There's a family
Gathered round the table
No more goodbyes
No letting go
That's how I'll know
I'm finally home
My eyes have never seen it
But I know that it exists
Something in my soul says
There's a better place than this
I'm a stranger in my own skin
Cause there's Eden in my bones
If home is where the heart is
Then this world is not my home
