Wanna Go Home

I’ve been many places and

I’ve seen the welcome of those friends

Who thought they might enjoy some company

Some were rich and some were poor

and I’ve spent a few nights on the floor

but comfort ain’t about mattresses and sheets

No, what makes a man sleep through the night

and gladly welcome morning light

is to feel that he is where he’s supposed to be

 But sometimes there’s a limit to

the space you’ll hold for someone who

you love so dearly, but most in theory

I wanna go home

I wanna go home

A couple of days everything’s just fine

but at some point you crossed the line

and now all of a sudden, nothing seems the same

They say they love to be your host

but somewhere back there, there’s the ghost

of feelings that been buried deep in shame

And as you try your best to pay your dues

their eyes will show you the news

that they’ve been overdue since the day you came

And whatever they were trying to be

by hosting you so patiently

it turns out that it costs more than it pays

I wanna go home

I wanna go home
