Lyrics
Home With You
Words and music by Simon Darveau
I got myself up at a quarter to three
And it's much too late
For the sun and the Bumble Bees
Got such a headache I'm ready to choke
And I got myself at the end of this rope
And if I ever can get out of this mess
I swear to God
I'll do the best of my very best
To set my life as straight as an arrow
And if I'm lucky I'll see you tomorrow
(Chorus)
And I'd rather be home with you
Than away, on a day
Without songs in my head
And I know
I have learned that much today
On a road where I had no luck
Without you
Yeah I'd rather be home with you
Than away on a day
Without songs in my head
And I guess
I have learned that much today
I tasted heaven in a place where they burn
Sorry sons of bitches
Like me and this other guy
He said I'd never get out of this place
But I didn't mind, I had my fare for the race
And when I got myself a kick in the crotch
From this big fat lady
She was mean, I can say that much
Went down on my knees face down in the fact
That my sorry life threw some color on the other side
(Chorus)
