Wherever I Am

Dust from cardboard boxes kept getting in my eyes Mama with my brother, taping up nearby He was only 4 but he still could understand What the U-HAUL meant hooked up to our sedan Another place, another town... he didn't wanna go He looked up and asked - 'mama... where is home?' She said... Wherever I am ... Wherever I am... A roof is just a roof ... It keeps the weather out Baby, these old walls ... they're just a house Head right where the love is, do you understand? Wherever I am - that's home ...wherever I am I looked at what was left - the scratched up wooden floor Peeling paint on window sills - coat hooks by the door I didn't see a single sign - of any part of us Standing in that empty shell - i fought tearing up She saw me struggle hard to keep a poker face She pulled me in, hugged us both - again I heard her say... Wherever I am ... Wherever I am... A roof is just a roof ... It keeps the weather out Baby, these old walls ... they're just a house Head right where the love is, do you understand? Wherever I am - that's home ...wherever I am ...wherever I am A roof is just a roof ... It keeps the weather out I know that these old walls ... they're just a house I still hear her message - my child understands... Wherever I am - that's home Wherever I am
