More Like Home

[Verse 1]
Those walls knew all of me and let me stay there anyway
That ceiling heard my teenage hurt when I would close my eyes and pray
Wore out those floors the night before the Wildcats went to State
I always thought where I was raised would be my favorite place

[Chorus]
But you feel more like freedom
Than barefeet in my backyard
You feel more like heaven
Than my bedroom window stars
And I guess it doesn't matter
If you can't go back again
'Cause you feel more like home
Than the house I grew up in

[Verse 2]
Sleep better in your arms than in my first twin bed
The blanket of your [?] calms the monsters in my head
Who I wanted to grow up to be is who I am with you
I thought that first time feeling was lost with my youth

[Chorus]
But you feel more like freedom
Than barefeet in my backyard
You feel more like heaven
Than my bedroom window stars
And I guess it doesn't matter
If you can't go back again
'Cause you feel more like home
Than the house I grew up in

[Bridge]
When mom and dad have sold that place
I swore I'd never forgive 'em
But I found out that home is more than just four walls you live in

[Chorus]
'Cause you feel more like freedom
Than barefeet in my backyard
You feel more like heaven
Than my bedroom window stars
And I guess it doesn't matter
If you can't go back again
'Cause you feel more like home
Than the house I grew up in
