Home is where the heart is
When I spread my wings and flew away
Spread my wings and flew away
I left my heart with you
Home is where the heart is
When I spread my wings and flew away
Spread my wings and flew away
I left my heart with you
Whether my feet are walking (Walking, walking)
Down the dusty roads of Jackson
Or the star-studded pavement of L.A. (Walking, walking)
Mmm (Walking, walking)
Honey, I find my thoughts are turning
I go home and the feet are yearning
For a nest I left a thousand miles away
'Cause home is where the heart is
Not the towns I'm drivin' in new
And when I spread my wings (Spread my wings) and flew away (Flew away)
I left my heart with you (I left my heart with you)
And when I spread my wings (Spread my wings) and flew away (Flew away)
I left my heart with you
Home is where the heart is
When I spread my wings and flew away
Whether my eyes are gazing (Gazing, gazing)
At the lovely sights of Paris
Or the beauty of the seven hills of Rome (Gazing, gazing)
(Gazing, gazing)
Honey, I find my true emotion
Like the ebb-tide of the ocean
Reaching back to embrace the shores of home
Home is where the heart is
Not the sight of my eyes kept you
And when I spread my wings (Spread my wings) and flew away (Flew away)
I left my heart with you (I left my heart with you)
And when I spread my wings (Spread my wings) and flew away (Flew away)
I left my heart with you
Yeaheaheah, your love was a bridge
Oh, that I've burnt after I crossed it
No, no, no, no, heyeyey, I never knew
What I had until I lost it
Ooohooo (Ooohooo)
Ooohooo (Ooohooo)
OoohoooOoohooo
Whether my arms holding (Holding, holding)
Someone new remembers
Or I'm kissing someone new in Buffalo (Kissing, kissing)
(Kissing, kissing)
Honey, I find my feeling's driven
Like a piece I didn't fit in
True, I feel a weight, now I'm used to grow
Home is where the heart is
Not the thrill of someone new
Ohoho, when I spread my wings (Spread my wings) and flew away (Flew away)
I left my heart with you (I left my heart with you)
And when I spread my wings (Spread my wings) and flew away (Flew away)
I left my heart with you
Home is where the heart is (Yeaheah)
When I spread my wings and flew away
Spread my wings and flew away
Home is where the heart is (Not the towns that I've been through)
When I spread my wings and flew away
Spread my wings and flew away
I left my heart with you (Oh, I gotta go home)
Home is where the heart is (Not the sights my eyes can see)
When I spread my wings and flew away (Yeah)
Spread my wings and flew away
I left my heart with you
Home is where the heart is
