Story Behind The Song

We start out with such good intentions when we start a family, but after years of trying to work it out many marriages still end in divorce. We can end up feeling fragmented in our relationships, feeling estranged and lonely.

Song Description

A ballad that questions how family members become distant from each other. Guitar, mandolin, strings and a female vocal help the listener to take a reflective look at the effects of family break up.

Lyrics

Where Is Home?
© 2009 Judy and Bruce Wing

Initials on the sidewalk carved so long ago
Leading to the front porch
So you would always know an open door, a caring heart
A place where you could always start again
In this world of woe, this is home.

But now the gardens overgrown, lights are on but no one's home
The family tree's been sawn in two
And no one's there to comfort you
What's in the past has taught you nothing good will ever last
Even love don't care anymore
Where is home? Where is home?

Scars upon a family tree where nameless branches used to be
Dwarfed ideas seek the truth, demand an answer, demand a proof

Now I know how these walls get built
With bricks of pride and rocks of guilt
Mortared by this silent time cuz someone had to draw a line
Somewhere, some time, for reasons so sublime
The stakes so high even love can't climb anymore
Where is home? Where is home? Where is home?
