Home Away From Home

I still can’t accept it


Lying awake at night

Silence of an open window

Breeze blowing change over me

And I’m home away from home.


It started so long ago

But it feels like yesterday

You loving me in the shadows

Of a lonely back room

Forgetting about the past.


Home away from home

Didn’t want to say it

Till the moment sent me backward

Into the corner

Of some county court room battle

Now I’m regretting all over again

My home away from home.


Time heals all wounds

Or so they say

But my heart still feels it

Knife in the mid stream

Of a broken dream.


It’s late again

Seems the darkness calls me

Full moon screaming

What the hell are you doing?

Take me to my home away from home.


Home away from home

Didn’t want to say it

Till the moment sent me backward

Into the corner

Of some county court room battle

Now I’m regretting all over again

My home away from home.
