Home to Me

Home to me is where I feel free It is a place I always want to be Home is where we laugh and learn Even when you leave you always want to return Home is where you can talk, trust and forgive It isn't just a place for you to live Home is more than a roof over your head Home is more than a place that has a bed Home is where your surrounded by the ones you love But isn't just about who is related by blood Home is not just mom and dad It’s all the ones that prevent you from being sad Home is where you love and appreciate one another Where the hugs are tight but occasionally smother Home is where the memories spark A place that never feels very dark Home can be 1, 2, even 3 places Home is when I'm with my bases Family wipes away your fears and your tears A place where you find comfort through the years Home is being surrounded by the people you love Home is a place that fits like a glove Home is where you can smell the coffee from miles away Home is where you feel happy as you walk through the doorway Home is not just a place it is a feeling That's why it's always so very appealing
