Lyrics

Look at me, like I’m 15, trying to find the perfect thing to wear
Look at me, in the mirror, trimming a tiny strand of hair
Look at me, crossing Shawmut Ave and I’ve never been so scared
But then I see your smile
And it feels like home to me

Look at you, with your tan skin, baby, and a smile that lights the stars
Look at you, picking up the tab, make me feel the night is ours
Look at you, with your hands on me, and I start to come apart
And when you hold me close
Yeah, it feels like home to me

And Nancy tells us ‘bout the neighborhood
And how it’s changed over the years
And while you chat with her I smile and listen, arm around you
Thinking I wouldn’t wanna be anywhere but here

Sitting on a bench in Blackstone Square
Just losing track of time
The night is warm, the lights are low, my body moves in slow
I kiss you, you kiss me, our homecoming

I’m a whirligig spinning in the spring air, falling with no aim
And you’re a big sky covering the city, you’re a wind across the plain
I wanna get lost in you, will you carry me away?
Cause baby in your sky
I go flying high
And I’m not alone
Yeah it feels like home to me
