Meaning of Home

A home is a place where you can be you Where strangers can't tell you what to do A home is a place that's full of love A place that's graceful like a dove My home is a place where I know I belong It's a place where strangers can´t push me along. A home is a place where I feel safe and warm A place where I can be in tip top form My home is a place where I wear PJs all day Where I know I´ll always be able to stay My home is a place where siblings fight Where they beat each other up with all their might. In my home, I don't need to be formal I can always be myself, just like normal A home is a place that's always alive A place you know you'll always thrive At night in my home I can hear my dad's snoring I can hear it over the loud rain pouring. In my home I won't be left out In my home there is no doubt A home is a place where I can grow and learn A place where I´ll have enough, without having to earn. A home is a place where you can for once be a child. A place where you're allowed to be wild. In my home we gather for Christmas Where everybody doesn't mind their own business My home is a place that I can come back to A place where I´ll always know what to do At my home, my family does things together Where our bond is as strong as leather I’m always secure in my parents´ warm embrace I know my home will always be my safe place
