Lyrics
They say the answer's always been right here
In the faces that you've always known
But I've been walking down these same old streets
And some dreams just won't call this place home
Maybe what I'm looking for
Isn't in my backyard anymore
Maybe it's time to spread my wings
And see what the horizon brings
Sometimes near, sometimes far
Sometimes right where you are
Sometimes you've got to roam to find what makes a home
The heart knows when to stay, and when to walk away
I've found magic in familiar arms
And I've found it on foreign ground
Love can bloom in your hometown coffee shop
Or in cities where you're not yet found
There's wisdom in the old advice
But there's freedom in rolling the dice
Some treasures hide in plain sight
Others wait beyond the night
Sometimes near, sometimes far
Sometimes right where you are
Sometimes you've got to roam to find what makes a home
The heart knows when to stay, and when to walk away
Don't let anyone tell you where your happiness should be
The world is wide and waiting And your heart holds the key
Some roots grow deeper when you leave
Some flowers bloom when you believe
That home can be a person, not a place
And love can have a traveling face
Sometimes near, sometimes far
Sometimes right where you are
Sometimes you've got to roam to find what makes a home
Trust your heart when it says stay
Trust your feet when they say "let's go away"
Sometimes far, that's exactly who you are
So here's to all the searching souls
Who know that both can be true
What you need might be next door
Or waiting in something new
