GARRETT HEDLUND – “MORE LIKE HOME”
those walls knew all of me
and let me stay there anyway
that ceiling heard my teenage hurt
when i would close my eyes and pray
wore out those floors
the night before the wildcats
went to state
i always thought
where i was raised
would be my favorite place
you feel more like freedom
then bare feet in my backyard
you feel more like heaven
than my bedroom window stars
i guess it doesn’t matter
if you can’t go back again
cause you feel more like home
than the house i grew up in
i sleep better in your arms
than in my first twin bed
the blanket of your whispers
calms the monsters in my head
who i wanted to grow up to be
is who i am with you
i thought that first time feeling
was lost with my youth
but you feel more like freedom
than bare feet in my backyard
you feel more like heaven
than my bedroom window stars
i guess it doesn’t matter
if you can’t go back again
cause you feel more like home
than the house i grew up in
when mom and daddy
sold that place
i swore i’d never forgive ‘em
but i found out that home is more
than just 4 walls you live in
you feel more like freedom
then bare feet in my backyard
you feel more like heaven
than my bedroom window stars
i guess it doesn’t matter
that i can’t go back again
cause you feel more like home
than the house i grew up in
