They say home is the place where your heart is Then I am home now though I am far away For so long I’ve let deep forests guard it And now it’s begging me to stay
And I’m trying my best to be tough To pretend I am strong and can siphon it off But I’m not who I wanted to be In my heart I belong in a house by the sea
They say home is a place where you’re needed Then I am home now but I am leaving To feel my feet being kissed by the seaweed And I’ll be silent and kiss it back
This is not who I want you to see It’s just adding on weight to the darkness in me And from the little I have understood I believe that a house by the sea would do good
They say home is a place you can choose to be And I’ve decided to carry home inside me So it’s not really as if I am leaving It’s more like something pulling me
‘cause behind everything that I do I just want to forget, want to carry this through Fill my lungs with the sweet summer air In my heart in my mind I am already there Yeah behind everything that I do I just want to come home and lay down beside you And then I’ll be who I wanted to be In my heart I belong in a house by the sea
