Lyrics

A Place Called Home

I lived in so many places
Went to so many schools
By the time I learned to play the games
We?d move on and change the rules

I never knew the reasons
Why we never stayed in one place
I failed to recognize the haunted look on your face

I know you had your demons
They followed you wherever you?d go
You were searching, searching
For a place that you called home

For you those days are over
You gave your pound of flesh and paid your dues
You bought a little house on a hill
With the highway for a view

That highway seemed to call to me
Like a siren?s song at night
I tried so hard to ignore it
Tried with all my might

I know you had your demons
I guess I?ve got some demons of my own
I?m still searching, searching
For a place that I call home

Those early years have made me what I am
Showed me how I want to be
I know someday home will show itself
Make itself known to me

I know you had your demons
I guess I?ve got some demons of my own
And I?m still searching, searching
For a place, a place that I call home
