Home Lyrics

[Verse 1: Jade Castrinos & Alexander]
Alabama, Arkansas, I do love my Ma and Pa
Not the way that I do love you

Well, holy moly, me oh my, you're the apple of my eye
Girl, I never loved one like you

Man, oh, man, you're my best friend, I scream it to the nothingness
There ain't nothing that I need

Well, hot and heavy pumpkin pie
Chocolate candy, Jesus Christ

There ain't nothing please me more than you


[Chorus: Jade Castrinos & Alexander]
Oh, home, let me come home
Home is whenever I'm with you
Oh, home, let me come home
Home is whenever I'm with you

[Post-Chorus: Jade Castrinos & Alexander]
La-la-la-la, take me home
Honey (Mother), I'm coming home

[Verse 2: Jade Castrinos, Alexander & Both]
I'll follow you into the park
Through the jungle, through the dark
Girl, I never loved one like you

Moats and boats and waterfalls, alleyways and pay phone calls
I been everywhere with you (Hey, that's true)
Laugh until we think we'll die, barefoot on a summer night
Never could be sweeter than with you
And in the streets, you run a-free, like it's only you and me
Geez, you're something to see

[Chorus: Jade Castrinos & Alexander]
Oh, home, let me come home
Home is whenever I'm with you
Oh, home, let me come home
Home is where I'm alone with you

[Outro: Jade Castrinos & Alexander]
Home, let me come home
Home is wherever I'm with you

Oh, home, yes, I am home
Home is when I'm alone with you

[Outro: Jade Castrinos, Alexander & Jade Castrinos & Alexander]
Alabama, Arkansas
I do love my Ma and Pa
Moats and boats and waterfalls
Alleyways and payphone calls
(Oh, home) Home
(Oh, home) Home
Home is wherever I'm with you
(Oh, home) Home
(Oh, home) Home
Home is when I'm alone with you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
