Hear the ping, put the phone face down Hide my grin as my heart pounds Stolen moments, precious seconds Behind locked doors Hear the ping, put the phone face down Hold my breath as my heart pounds Walk on eggshells, plan my words Jump at every sound We watch the time, whatever it may be Enjoy a world where it's just you and me Living love songs, soft and slow Sharing secrets only we can know Robbing clocks like we're Bonnie and Clyde On the run just enjoying the ride Just you and me, the world in-between Will we get away with everything we've been? Home is where the heart aches But it's all I've ever known Once believed it was my dream But with you that dream has grown Home is where the heart lies Feelings I can never show When what should feel wrong feels right Wish that I could spend the night But I have to go Homemade dinner, sitcoms on TV Change the bulb that's been dead for weeks Close lipped, goodnight kisses I'll be up soon Order pizza as a special treat Screens are off, homework's complete Bedtime stories, goodnight kisses I'll be up soon Could you give up all that you had planned When no one you know would understand? Could you live a lie hiding who you'd be With no one to trust or confide in but me? We live under covers, our blinders on Don't look ahead or it could be gone Where do we draw the line that we've already crossed When whatever we choose is too great a cost? Home is where the heart aches But it's all I've ever known Once believed it was my dream But with you that dream has grown Home is where the heart lies Feelings I can never show When what should feel wrong feels right Wish that I could spend the night But I have to go When you find forever too late You can't help but make mistakes And you can't let go when it's more than you can take When you find how life should be And you finally feel free How do you go back to what you thought was happy? Home is where the heart aches But it's all I've ever known Once believed it was my dream But with you that dream has grown Home is where the heart lies Feelings I can never show When what should feel wrong feels right Wish that I could spend the night

You know, there's an old saying That's been around quite some time If I can remember it says, "You can take the boy out of the country But you sure can't take the country out of the boy" Now, I might be broke As a matter of fact, I am, ain't got a crying dime to my name But I got a good girl that sits close by my side That's what I'm tellin' y'all I could never be happy on a hill With a whole lot of money, girl It just don't feel like it did with you In a little old shack, girl Way down home across the railroad tracks Take me home (take me home) Sweet home (sweet home) That's where my heart is (that's where my heart is) Oh, I want to go home (sweet home) Sweet home (sweet home) That's where my heart is (that's where my heart is) Some folks groove on big Cadillacs Fancy clothes and stuff like that I was perfectly happy as I can be But she'd play, and my cheatin' way Take me home (take me home) Sweet home (sweet home) That's where my heart is (that's where my heart is) Oh, I want to go home (sweet home) Sweet home (sweet home) That's where my heart is (that's where my heart is) Yeah, yeah, yeah Ooh baby Might not never become a millionaire But long as I got you honey, I don't care I might be down and out, got holes in my shoes But I still feel as rich as Howard Hughes Take me home, huh, to me that says a whole lot No, I want to go home I wonder if you ever felt like that Felt like you was all by your self and had no one to talk to Have you ever felt like that?

We should've lit a book of matches Should've burned it down to dirt Left forever in the ashes with those rings that didn't work Now the teardrops in the carpet and fiction in the frames Just sit there on that cul-de-sac like a monument to pain Home is where the heartbreak is Where do you go when all that you know Has slipped right through your fingertips? Love found somewhere else to live It took what we had, it ain't comin' back Now home is where the heartbreak is There's a roof over this barstool, comfort in this glass When they kick me out, it's gonna hurt to feel the past And that empty bedroom where we made love Is still haunted by all the ghosts of us And I can't face it now, I just can't face it now Home is where the heartbreak is Where do you go when all that you know Has slipped right through your fingertips? Love found somewhere else to live It took what we had, it ain't comin' back Now home is where the heartbreak is (Heartbreak, heartbreak is Heartbreak, heartbreak is Heartbreak, heartbreak is) Oh, sadness ain't much of an address It's all that you left me with Instead of a goodbye kiss Home is where the heartbreak is Where do you go when all that you know Has slipped right through your fingertips? Love found somewhere else to live It took what we had, it ain't comin' back Now home is where the heartbreak is (Heartbreak, heartbreak is) Where the heartbreak is (Heartbreak, heartbreak is) Where the heartbreak is (Heartbreak, heartbreak is) Don't wanna go home, but I can't stay here (Heartbreak, heartbreak is) Where the heartbreak is (Heartbreak, heartbreak is) Where the heartbreak is (Heartbreak, heartbreak is) Now home is where the heartbreak is

I felt I was spinning my wheels Before too long the road was calling I packed everything I own So sure that I was leaving this small town life behind for good And not a single tear was falling It took leaving for me to understand Sometimes your dreams just aren't what life has planned Mama said home is where the heart is When I left that town I made it all the way to West Virginia And that's where my heart found Exactly where I'm supposed to be It didn't take much time It's just south of the Mason Dixon line It's just south of the Mason Dixon line I worked third shift at an all-night diner Only stayed to save a little money for Enough gas to make it to the East Coast That's when I saw the brightest pair of Deep blue eyes walking straight into my life And every night we talked 'til it became so clear And I could feel those dreams inside shifting gears 'Cause love brought me here Mama said home is where the heart is When I left that town I made it all the way to West Virginia And that's where my heart found Exactly where I'm supposed to be It didn't take much time It's just south of the Mason Dixon line It's just south of the Mason Dixon line And I'm standing in my veil about to say I do As mama smiles with tear drops in her eyes And then I realize there's something mama always knew Love is what I really left to find She said home is where the heart is When I left that town I made it all the way to West Virginia And that's where my heart found Exactly where I'm supposed to be It didn't take much time It's just south of the Mason Dixon line It's just south of the Mason Dixon line Mama said home is where the heart is It's just south of the Mason Dixon line Mama said home is where the heart is It's just south of the Mason Dixon line

We're well known in every honky tonk in town Not a night goes by that we don't make the rounds People wonder why we choose to live this way Why don't they ever stay at home I hear them say But home is where the hurt is Cause love doesn't live there anymore Home is where the hurt is That's why we don't stay at home much anymore What was once our happy home has come to be A place to fuss and fight and disagree Our lonely house with wall to wall regret And these bright lights somehow help us to forget Cause home is where the hurt is... That's why we don't stay at home much anymore

Life has a funny way Of keeping me on my toes Oh how my shoulders ache Under the weight of my woes My tears fall On my old guitar And I just wail and weep Over softly bending strings Lovers and friends the same Everyone's fair game Everyone can hurt your heart When it all falls apart My tears fall On my old guitar Time and time again My surest friend My tears fall On my old guitar And I just wail and weep Over softly bending strings No matter where I go The music guides my soul Through all the ups and downs It can help turn me around My tears fall On my old guitar And I just wail and weep Over softly bending strings
