Intro

"Home."

I've heard the word before,

but it never meant much more

than just a thing I've never had.

place,

They say, "Hey, know your place!"

But I've never had a place to even know,

or a face that I could go to if I

needed someone there

I'm laughing

it's hard to hide a smile

My god, it's been a while

since I have had a reason to.

To think

it's been here all along

somewhere to belong, and a reason,

a something to believe in

I've finally found it,

a place where I'm wanted

This must be how it feels

to have a home

I used to dream about it

but never schemed or counted

on fantasies or wishes

it breaks a man to see what he misses

So many nights I'd pray

for a better life, a better day

but I never thought that it'd come true

it's finally here and I don't know what to do

and I'm trying not to cry

This must be how it feels

to have a home

Instrumental

I've finally made it

I've hoped and I've waited

and for the first time in my life,

I don't feel so alone

My heart starts to heal

to know that it's real.

This is how it must feel

to have a home!
