lyrics

HOME (Mark Utley - Sleep Cat Music/BMI)

It's the way that you feel with my hands on your hips
In a cool cotton dress and a sigh on your lips
As we waltz in our bare feet upon the wood floor
'Cause the baby's asleep in a room down the hall

I don't think there's anyone lucky as me
I got the stars in the sky and the frogs in the trees
I got an old wood guitar and a dog in the shade
And a redheaded girl and the home that we made

And I've been 'round the world
I've seen more than most people see
I spent half of my life out on some road
But now, after it all
There's no place that I'd rather be
It's so good to be home

Now you're gone for the weekend and I just ain't right
I brewed way too much coffee
Washed some darks with the lights
But I just got done singin' someone to sleep
Looked a whole lot like you but he smiles just like me

And I want you to know
How much I miss you tonight
When you're so far away, out on some road
And I want you to know
How much it hurts when you're gone
I want you with me
Here at home
