[Album title: Choose the Sun] [Verse 1] I spent twenty-odd years looking at a roadmap on the dash Chasing ghost towns and postcodes, running outta gas I thought home was a house with a porch and a pinewood frame Or a dot on the map where everybody knew my name. I traveled every highway from Virginia to the coast Always looking for the place that I was missing most. [Pre-Chorus] Then you walked into my world on a rainy Tuesday night And all those dusty windshield views suddenly felt right... [Chorus] 'Cause home ain't a porch, it ain't a spot of land It ain't four wooden walls built by a working man's hand It's the way that you look at me when the day is through It's the peace in my heart when I'm holding you I could be anywhere under a roof or the open sky... Yeah, home ain't a place... it's the light in your eyes. [Verse 2] Now we could pack a couple bags and put the key in the ignition Head out west with no direction and no fixed position We could sleep in a motel off an old dirt road Or a little rented cabin where the cold wind blows And I wouldn't feel lost for a second of the drive 'Cause sitting right beside me is my reason to thrive. [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, I used to think I needed a foundation made of stone Until you taught me what it really means to not be alone... [Chorus] 'Cause home ain't a porch, it ain't a spot of land It ain't four wooden walls built by a working man's hand It's the way that you look at me when the day is through It's the peace in my heart when I'm holding you I could be anywhere under a roof or the open sky... Yeah, home ain't a place... it's the light in your eyes. [Bridge] They say home is where the heart is, and I finally know it's true... 'Cause everywhere I'll ever go, my heart stays right with you. [Chorus] No, home ain't a porch, it ain't a spot of land It ain't four wooden walls built by a working man's hand It's the way that you look at me when the day is through It's the peace in my heart when I'm holding you I could be anywhere under a roof or the open sky... Yeah, home ain't a place... it's the light in your eyes. [Outro] Yeah, anywhere with you... That's my home. It's the light in your eyes.
