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
