When I wrote Sweet Home, I was feeling nostalgic. What’s interesting is that it was a pretty generic sort of nostalgia. As I spent more time with the song, and what the video might be, it occurred to me that as we grow, our concept of home grows with us. Home will always be some mythical combination...
[Verse 1]
Never have I seen a place
That reminds me of your face
'Til I heard it call to me
Like a phone call from a friend
Set in silence like a prayer
If these walls could breathe the air
They would sing a song of love
And how it sometimes has to end
[Chorus]
Welcome home, your last and only one
Never more to roam
Have no fear if you don't see the sun
I will hold you close
Welcome home
You are home
No nothing tastes like sweet
Sweet home
[Verse 2]
Letters written in the den
Folded news and coffee cans
Simple things that I recall
Not forgotten easily
Dog is passed out on the lawn
He will miss me when I'm gone
He won't speak what he has seen
Like the walls surrounding me
[Chorus]
Welcome home
Your last and only one
Never more to roam
Have no fear if you don't see the sun
I will hold you close
Welcome home, you are home
No nothing tastes like sweet
Sweet home
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
Welcome home
Your last and only one
Never more to roam
Have no fear if you don't see the sun
I will hold you close
Welcome home
You are home
No nothing tastes like sweet
Nothing tastes like sweet
No nothing tastes like sweet
Sweet home

Fun fact, I mess up the acoustic picking pattern in a few places and it felt so right to everyone in the studio that no one has noticed yet.
