Oooh
Sometimes I wanna shut off my phone
And go somewhere off the map
Leave a facebook post to my friends
Saying I'm never coming back
My sister she's out on the eastcoast
Told me it snowed last night
I've been out here so long i've forgotten
Just what that feels like
My mother is afraid that I won't be the same
And sometimes I'm scared of that too
But city's and streets won't come in between me and you
Cuz' I'm home, sweet home
No matter where I may roam
Like ink on my skin, you're permanent
And I want the world to know
That I'm right at home
I'll never walk alone
While I'm chasing my dreams, I'll keep you with me
Your heart is on my sleeve
Sometimes I wanna jump on a plane
Out of this paradise
Yeah, this house on the hill sure is pretty
But it don't feel right
My father is afraid that I'm gonna change
I promise that I'm staying true
Cuz' city's and streets won't come inbetween me and you
Cuz' I'm home, sweet home
No matter where I may roam
Like ink on my skin, you're permanent
And I want the world to know
That I'm right at home
I'll never walk alone
While I'm chasing my dreams, I'll keep you with me
Your heart is on my sleeve
Your words are my armor my strenght
Your love is my one saving grace
No demons nor doubts can bring these walls down
As long as you're here with me
I am home, sweet home
I'm never on my own
Cuz' I'm home, sweet home
No matter where I may roam
Like ink on my skin, you're permanent
And I want the world to know
That I'm right at home
I'll never walk alone
While I'm chasing my dreams, I'll keep you with me
Your heart is on my sleeve [4x]
