[Her:]
Alabama, Arkansas,
I do love my ma and pa,
Not the way that I do love you.
[Him:]
Holy, Moley, me, oh my,
You’re the apple of my eye,
Girl I’ve never loved one like you.
[Her:]
Man oh man you’re my best friend,
I scream it to the nothingness,
There ain’t nothing that I need.
[Him:]
Well, hot and heavy, pumpkin pie,
Chocolate candy, Jesus Christ,
Ain’t nothing please me more than you.
[Both:]
Ahh Home. Let me come home
Home is wherever I’m with you.
Ahh Home. Let me go ho-oh-ome.
Home is wherever I’m with you.
La, la, la, la, take me home.
Mother, I’m coming home.
[Him:]
I’ll follow you into the park,
Through the jungle through the dark,
Girl I never loved one like you.
[Her:]
Moats and boats and waterfalls,
Alley-ways and pay phone calls,
I’ve been everywhere with you.
[Him:]
We laugh until we think we’ll die,
Barefoot on a summer night
Nothin’ new is sweeter than with you
[Her:]
And in the streets you run afree,
Like it’s only you and me,
Geeze, you’re something to see.
[Both:]
Ahh Home. Let me go home.
Home is wherever I’m with you.
Ahh Home. Let me go ho-oh-ome.
Home is wherever I’m with you.
because moving and leaving behind all friends and family was the hardest thing i’ve done and the loneliness was immeasurable at times in the sense of me just wanting something and someone familiar and not being able to get it, but i guess my boyfriend changed all that. he’s just one person and he doesn’t make up for all the people that i don’t have around anymore, but he is my home in another way. i dont really know how to explain it. i might not be in pittsburgh with all my old friends and be able to talk to my mom whenever i want or lay on my kitchen floor and play with my fluffball of a dog but it’s as if i don’t need to anymore. he is all the qualities of a family and friends bottled up into one person and he makes me just as happy and it is amazing. he’s my best friend and he gives me all the love i need…and it’s amazing because it’s only coming from one person! i still need them, but i accept that i can only see them twice a year and having him around is just as comforting as arriving home and seeing my mom or my best friend from kindergarten. it is also an exceptionally amazing love and i wouldn’t trade it for being back in my “comfort zone”. and i just love this song. and we saw them live at the Telluride Bluegrass fest this summer and it blew me away. voila.
