Close to Home

[Chorus]
Well it hits a little close to home
Hits a little close to home
Like the thing you said
And the book I read
Strike a familiar tone
Yeah it hits a little close to home, mama
Message from the great unknown
Well you know, that song
Where it all goes wrong
Hits a little close to home

[Verse 1]
Well I thought I wore a great disguise
But, boy, was I surprised
When you looked at me
Like you could see
Through my well-constructed lies
And in from the other room
I heard a Hank Williams tune
When he sang that part
About a cheatin' heart
He was talking 'bout me and you

[Chorus]
And it hits a little close to home
Hits a little close to home
Like the things you said
And the book I read
Strike a familiar tone
Yeah it hits a little close to home, mama
It cuts right through the bone
Well you know, that song
Where it all goes wrong
Hits a little close to home

[Verse 2]
Well you may have to let it be
And answer telepathically
It's a sign you saw
Some unwritten law
That explains it all perfectly
But it always makes me sit and squirm
I feel my stomach churn
And the truth they tell
Comes and rings my bell
I hear it everywhere I turn

[Chorus]
And it hits a little close to home
Hits a little close to home
Well, the things you said
And the book I read
Strike a familiar tone
Yeah hits a little close to home, mama
It cuts right through the bone
Well you know that song
Where it all goes wrong
Hits a little close to home

[Outro]
You know, that song
Where it all goes wrong
Hits a little close to home
Well you know, that song
Where it all goes wrong
Hits a little close, hits a little close
Hits a little close to home
