[Verse 1]
I was the new kid
I was scared of dogs and the weather
Never went on a field trip
Scared I'd lose my mother and father
I was the new kid
Didn't understand what's goin' on
But I tried my best to fit in
Started puttin' it in a song
[Chorus]
No, I don't get homesick
But I'm sick when I'm without you
And I don't feel lonely
I just wanna be alone with you
And I said I'd never write a love song
'Cause they always end
But you caught me off guard
And I found a home again
[Post-Chorus]
No, I don't get homesick
No, I don't feel lonely
[Verse 2]
I was the new kid
I liked to wear the same shirts again
It reminded me where I've been
All the places I've left my brothers
I was the new kid
I never understood what's goin' on
And I didn't know how to talk
So I put it in a song
[Chorus]
No, I don't get homesick
But I'm sick when I'm without you
And I don't feel lonely
I just wanna be alone with you
And I said I'd never write a love song
'Cause they always end
But you caught me off guard
And I found a home again
[Bridge]
I don't feel alone
I don't feel alone
I don't feel alone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone
I don't feel alone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone
[Verse 3]
Well, I was the new kid
I was scared of dogs and the weather
Never went on a field trip
Scared I'd lose my mother and father
I was the new kid
Didn't understand what's goin' on
But I tried my best to fit in
Started puttin' it in a song
[Chorus]
No, I don't get homesick
But I'm sick when I'm without you
And I don't feel lonely
I just wanna be alone with you
And I said I'd never write a love song
'Cause they always end
But you caught me off guard
And I found a home again
[Outro]
No, I don't get homesick
No, I don't, no, I don't
No, I don't, no, I don't
And I don't feel lonely
I just wanna be alone with you
I don't feel alone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone
(I don't feel, I don't feel, don't feel alone)
I don't feel alone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone-lone
I don't feel alone

When I wrote “Homesick” it was the realization I had that I don’t actually get homesick – I don’t ever miss a certain place, I always kind of miss people. It’s kind of fun song and it talks a lot about my past – I used to be scared of a tornado somehow coming out of nowhere and just trashing everyth...
