Feels Like Home
Chantal Kreviazuk Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Makes me want to lose myself
Makes me want to lose myself
In your arms
There's something in your voice
Makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts
The rest of my life
And how long I've been so alone
And if you knew how I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you've done
It feels like home to me
It feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where
I come from
It feels like home to me
It feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
A window breaks down a long dark street
And a siren wails in the night
But I'm alright, 'cause I have you here with me
And I can almost see through the dark there is light
If you knew how much this moment means to me
And how long I've waited for your touch
And if you knew how happy you are making me
I never thought that I'd love anyone so much
It feels like home to me
It feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where
I come from
It feels like home to me
It feels like home to me
Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
The song "Feels Like Home" by Chantal Kreviazuk is a love song that expresses the singer's overwhelming emotions of finding someone who makes her feel comfortable and loved. She captures this sentiment by beginning with the line, "Something in your eyes makes me want to lose myself," suggesting that the person she's singing about makes her want to let go of all her walls and be fully vulnerable with them. She feels an immediate connection to the person because of the way they make her feel, and not only does she feel comforted, but her heart beats faster every time she hears them speak. In the chorus, she repeats the phrase, "It feels like home to me," as if she's found her true home in this person and that they've helped her find a place where she truly belongs.
The second verse sees the inclusion of more symbolism, including the sound of a siren in the night, a broken window, and the dark. However, she feels protected and comforted by her lover's presence and feels like there is light in the darkness. The third and final verse is particularly poignant as she tells her lover that if they could understand how much they mean to her and how happy they've made her, they would understand the intensity of her feelings for them. Overall, this song is about finding a safe place where one can be themselves and fully vulnerable, a place where one belongs.

My nephew is far behind mentally compared to other children his age, 2 and a half years old, just learning to talk and stand. One thing he has always loved was music. This is one of his favourites. He's just learned to sing and he always sings this song. This song always calms him down when he's having his moods. I love the fact he learned songs before simple words like "yes" & no or "mom" a& "dad". Shows me how powerful music can be.
