Home

Home isn’t just a structure with walls, a roof, and a door In fact, home means a little bit more Home isn’t just a place to eat, live, and sleep It is a place where memories are made to keep Home is a sanctuary where you feel secure It is a place where you can throw away your fears It is a place that you go back to when you’re feeling low And it’s a place where you sit down, and watch a show Home is a place where you can sit down to rest With the squirrels in your roof who made a nest It’s a peaceful place to study for a test And also a good place to invite a guest Home a place to stay with your family It’s a place you’re attached sentimentally It’s a place where we will be less shy And we feel safe not to lie Home is a place to stay when times are tough If your day has been rough as a rock and you had enough It is the best place to be If you want to relax, or hurt your knee Home is a place where we grow It’s where we do fun things, like playing in the snow Home is where we have fond memories From playing games to watching documentaries Home is a place where we belong It has a place in our hearts, which will never be gone It is where we feel feel most at peace And where our sense of belonging will never cease
