My Home Is You

The concrete
Holds the heat
Of the day
Burns my feet
As I walk away
But as I hoped
You grab me and pull
Back to you
I’m coming back to

And my feet are bleeding
But I don’t care
It’s worth it when you’re dancing with me
I say, “Where do you come from?
Take me there.”

And you say,
*Baby I’d take you anywhere but home
Your boy grew up a man, a rolling stone
No one to call home, no place too
Maybe, baby, my home can be you_

Summertime
Never stops
With your eyes
I forgot
What I was saying
Yeah, what I was saying
You plucked the words
Right out of my mouth
When I asked you
If your home was north or south

And you say,
*Baby I’d take you anywhere but home
Your boy grew up a man, a rolling stone
No one to call home, no place too
Maybe, baby, my home can be you_

I agree
But the green
Grass grows
And I just want to know
What was so bad
You can’t
Talk about it
With me
What can’t I fix
For you
Who can’t you be?

But you take my hand
Your touch makes me understand
And you say,
*Baby I’d take you anywhere but home
Your boy grew up a man, a rolling stone
No one to call home, no place too
Baby, baby, my home is you

Baby I’d take you anywhere but home
Your boy grew up a man, a rolling stone
No one to call home, no place too
Baby, baby, my home is you
My home is you
And I’m your home too_
