Home

There are days in this life
I remember perfectly
Waking up on Christmas morning
Finding gifts under the tree
A fire warming up the hearth
My mother's cocoa
And her heart
Just a feeling that we both call home
I remember what it felt like leaving
Setting off on my own
The coldness that the soul feels
When alone

What does love mean to you
I remember well the day we met
The day we would start
A question that I always ask
Of anyone I allow into my heart
What does love mean to you
You gave me the best answer
That I've heard in all my days
You didn't speak any of
The standard dumb clichés
What does love mean to you
It means home
It means home

There are days in this life
I remember feeling warm
Days when laughter filled the house
And moments filled with song
All those tiny little things
You remember when they're gone
That strong feeling that was once home
I remember what it felt like being alone
In my own place
The loneliness of missing
An Embrace

What does love mean to you
I remember well the day we met
The day we would start
A question that I always ask
Of anyone I allow into my heart
What does love mean to you
You gave me the best answer
That I've heard in all my days
You didn't speak any of
The standard dumb clichés
What does love mean to you
It means home
It means home

There are times in this life
When you feel all alone
You might live with someone in a house
But it doesn't feel like home
No matter how much heat
Flows through the room you're in
That warmth
Can't find a way through skin
That strong feeling you'll always feel alone
I remember what it felt to be
In a house cold as stone
Others there but still feeling
Like your heart's on its own

After leaving home that second time
I set out unsure if love was meant for me
But then I saw you and suddenly
Home wasn't a place it was where you'd be
Not just walls but an open door
A brand-new shore
A world where I was accepted
My soul no longer rejected
For the first time in my life
I was home

What does love mean to you
I remember well the day we met
The day we would start
A question that I always ask
Of anyone I allow into my heart
What does love mean to you
You gave me the best answer
That I've heard in all my days
You didn't speak any of
The standard dumb clichés
What does love mean to you
It means home
It means home

What does love mean to you
A bond no fear can break
What does love mean to you
A warmth no cold can take
What does love mean to you
It means home
It means home
Because wherever you are
I am home
