"This is an older song of mine that I was excited to re-visit and re-record. When you are a traveling musician, it is too easy to end up writing songs about being a vagabond and dealing with life on the road. Here is one about the beauties of loving home!"

I never understood why they say home is where the heart is
I never lived a single place long enough to miss,
but now I see you every day, in the early morning, and late at night,
and the home we have together, babe, is my guiding light

This time, you are always on my mind,
and it's better than the last time, when I was on my own
With you, I'm already feeling so new,
and I'm telling you that it's true that I don't feel alone
You are my home

You're like a screen door letting in the summer breeze,
you're like a fireplace or a front porch swing
You're every little memory that I've ever known
You're everything I'm looking for, you make this house my home

This time, you are always on my mind,
and it's better than the last time, when I was on my own
With you, I'm already feeling so new,
and I'm telling you that it's true that I don't feel alone
You are my home

You're my patchwork quilt on a cold winter night,
you're my bluebird in the window, in the morning light

This time, you are always on my mind,
and it's better than the last time, when I was on my own
With you, I'm already feeling so new,
and I'm telling you that it's true that I don't feel alone
You are my home
