lyrics

HOME

Home is a place I used to know by name
Now it's just a place that I passed through
Big skies of blue where everybody knows my name
Is now replaced by everything new

I try to remember the smell of the morning
All I seem to see is the skyline
Snow on the rockies, sunsets in the evenings
I'll sit behind the mile-high smog line

I miss that garbage on the street on Colfax
I can almost hear the sound of traffic iin my heart
Think right now my home's probably sleeping
But the sun has risen here so I must start

CHORUS
My father used to say 'Wherever you go, there you are'
I don't think that applies to me
Wherever I go I start anew, a me you never knew
Never see the old me again

When he came over I knew my life was over,
Wasn't in the way you'd imagine
He was a stranger, but what was even stranger
Was he brought me a new life with him

I miss those transient men who walk down my street
I always wondered what they murmured in the dark
I find endearing the lost souls of the city
Where I belong and where I made my start

CHORUS
My father used to say 'Wherever you go, there you are'
I don't think that applies to me
Wherever I go I start anew, a me you never knew
Never see the old me again

I miss the city feel walking down on Colfax
I can almost hear the sound of traffic in my heart
Think right now my home must be sleeping
But the sun has risen here so I must start

CHORUS
My father used to say 'Wherever you go, there you are'
I don't think that applies to me
Wherever I go I start anew, a me you never knew
Never see the old me again
