Your Home Is In My Heart
Boyz II Men Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't be afraid. Love has no age.

[Chorus]
Even from across the sea
(so far across the sea)
I can hear you calling me
(baby come to me)
Destiny controls it all
No matter where you are
Dream and dare to love again
Your home is in my heart

I know the way I feel about you won't pass
Oh yes it's gonna last and stand the test of time
So your search for love is about to end
Your future holds a place where true love begins
I'll be right there

[Chorus]

Take alone a journey
Just start at the beginning
You won't know where you're goin'
'Til you're there

[Chorus]

Is it just physical or is it lasting love?




Please don't give up
We won't know unless we try

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Boyz II Men's song "Your Home Is In My Heart" is about the power of love and how it transcends distance and time. The first line, "Don't be afraid, love has no age," emphasizes that love is universal and not limited by age or time. The chorus repeats the idea that no matter where they are, destiny controls their love, and they should dream and dare to love again because their "home is in my heart." This line suggests that the love between the two people is strong and unbreakable, and they will always have a place in each other's hearts.


The second verse talks about the strength of the singer's love for the person they're singing to. They declare that their love won't pass and will stand the test of time. They encourage the other person to stop their search for love because their future is already secured, and it's where true love begins. The chorus is repeated, again emphasizing that no matter where they are or what happens, their love is constant and ever-present. The bridge speaks about taking a journey into the unknown and not being sure where it will end up. It's a metaphor for taking a chance on love, even though it may be uncertain.


In the final lines of the song, the singer poses a question about whether their love is just physical or lasting. They don't want the other person to give up on their love without trying it first. The song's overarching message is that love is powerful and unifying, and it can bridge the distance between two people, no matter how great that distance may seem.
