Gino Vannelli
I Am Home
Something familiar about your face
A glimmer I can't quite trace
A name on a tag I can't recall
Yet your eyes say it all

So sorry if I go and make you blush
Forgive me if I say much too much
Much too much

You are the roof above my head
You are the ground beneath my feet
You are the fire in the hearth
The cool breeze in the heat
You are a soft bed of down
For my set of weary bones
Just to hear you say hello
I know I am home

Almost gave up my lifelong quest
Thought I was doomed to loneliness
It's like I was born a second time
Standing in your checkout line

And I knew just where I belonged
When you placed that dime in my sweaty palm
You are the roof above my head
You are the ground beneath my feet
You are the fire in the hearth
The cool breeze in the heat
You are a soft bed of down
For my set of weary bones
Just to hear you say hello
I know I am home

Hate to walk out on a hunch
When I know it to be true
Gonna jump the gun and say
I love you

You are a soft bed of down to rest my weary bones
Just to hear you say hello
I know I am home
