Lyrics
Suddenly, I'm standing in a new place,
Higher than anywhere I've been.
And here you are, as if you have been waiting.
Could this be where my journey ends?
All my life I've wondered if this road I am on
Would be so hard if it was really where I belong
Chorus: But it sure feels like home now
And it's like no home I ever knew
After all the times I've fallen over myself
Finally I found my way to you.
And it's nothing like the visions I imagined or anything that I've known
But it sure feels like home!
Most of the way I've been so lonely
But sometimes friends would ease the pain
Cheering me on if I was falling
Reminding me of all I can attain.
And now I see when I was stumbling in fear,
Any road I've ever been on was just to get me here.
Chorus: And it sure feels like home
But it's like no home I ever knew
After all the times I've fallen over myself
Finally I found my way to you.
And it's nothing like the visions I imagined or anything that I've known
But it sure feels like home!
With you I see such a bright beginning,
A feeling like I am always winning...
That everything I ever wanted is coming to be.
Chorus: And it sure feels like home
But it's like no home I ever knew
After all the times I've fallen over myself
Finally I found my way to you.
And it's nothing like the visions I imagined or anything that I've known
But it sure feels like home!
Yeah, it sure feels like home.
