Tag: feels like home to me

As Hurricane Idalia barrels across the southeastern section of the USA today, Pretty has gone for dog food and I’m watching the rain begin to softly fall through my office windows, listening to Alexa shuffle my playlist of songs I love. Feels like Home to Me by my favorite trio of Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris reminds me of who and what are most important to me when the storms of life threaten to overwhelm.

Something in your eyes
Makes me wanna lose myself
Makes me wanna lose myself
In your arms

… There’s something in your voice

… Makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts
The rest of my life
If you knew how lonely my life has been

… And how long I’ve been so alone

… If you knew how I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you’ve done

… Feels like home to me
Feels like home to me
Feels like I’m all the way back where

… I come from
Feels like home to me
Feels like home to me
Feels like I’m all the way back where I belong

… A window breaks down a long dark street
And a siren wails in the night

… But I’m alright ’cause I have you here with me
And I can almost see through the dark there is light

… If you knew how much this moment means to me
And how long I’ve waited for your touch
If you knew how happy you are making me
I’ve never thought that I’d love anyone so much

… Feels like home to me
Feels like home to me
Feels like I’m all the way back where
I come from

… Feels like home to me
Feels like home to me
Feels like I’m all the way back where I belong
Feels like I’m all the way back where I belong

(Randy Newman, songwriter)
