Jay Parish - Only Home Lyrics




My town always was too small for me
I had to go somewhere I've never been
Maybe I thought I would find myself
Or maybe find a place where I fit in

Oh, I don't know what I'm looking for
But I've been looking for it ever since

I've seen more than I thought I ever would
I've done more than I thought I'd ever say
Even made some good friends here and there
But not enough to make me want to stay

But now these places and faces
Are all starting to look the same

And there's always
Somewhere new I want to go
But I'm ready to leave
As soon as I unpack my clothes
'Cause every time I stop,
It just reminds me that I'm on my own
Oh, I guess the road is the only home I know

Once or twice I could've settled down
But I couldn't let myself get too attached
Well, I guess I'm paying for it now
But my pride won't let me regret the past

But still, it's hard to miss your home
When no one's there to miss you back

Oh, no one's there to help me get my bags
No one's there to greet me at the door
No one sits with me at the table
But it's not like there ever was someone before

And soon enough, I have to leave
'Cause I can't take the silence anymore

And there's always
Somewhere new I want to go
But I'm ready to leave
As soon as I unpack my clothes
'Cause every time I stop,
It just reminds me that I'm on my own
Oh, I guess the road is the only home I know

I tell myself I'm done after this time
Every time I change my mind with the weather
And every time I find someone I like
I go out and try to find somebody better

But I'm not getting any younger
And I can't keep on doing this forever

Sometimes I'll come back and tell the stories
'Cause a new place every night's just not her style
But sometimes I really wish I was in her shoes
And sometimes she wishes she could go do something wild

We don't say it, but we both wish
We could trade places once in a while

Because there's always
Somewhere new I want to go
But I'm ready to leave
As soon as I unpack my clothes
'Cause every time I stop,
It just reminds me that I'm on my own
Oh, I guess the road is the only home I know
