Feels Like Home
Diana Krall and Bryan Adams Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Somethin' in your eyes, makes me wanna lose myself
Makes me wanna lose myself, in your arms
There's somethin' in your voice, makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts, the rest of my life

If you knew how lonely my life has been
And how low I've felt for so long
If you knew how I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you've done

Feels like home to me, feels like home to me
Feels like I'm all the way back where I come from
Feels like home to me, feels like home to me
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's a light

If you knew how much this moment means to me
And how long (and how long) I've waited (I've waited) for your touch

Feels like home to me, feels like home to me
Feels like I'm all the way back where I come from
Feels like home to me, feels like home to me




Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Feels Like Home" by Diana Krall centers around the idea of finding a person that makes someone feel complete, like they have come home, a sentiment that anyone can resonate with. The song describes the emotional vulnerability that comes from falling in love, where the singer's partner makes them feel safe and secure, allowing them to be themselves without any pretense or inhibition. The opening verse is particularly poignant, where the singer explains how their partner's eyes and voice made them want to lose themselves in their partner's embrace, hoping that the feeling they experience will last for a lifetime.


The second verse takes the listener on a trip through the singer's life, where they have been struggling to find someone to complete them, someone to fill the emptiness in their life. In contrast, the singer describes the feeling of completeness and belonging they experience when they are with their partner, stating that it feels like they have finally come home.

Something in your eyes
Makes me wanna lose myself
Makes me wanna lose myself
In your arms
There's something in your voice
Makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling last the rest of my life

If you knew how lonely my life has been
And how low I've felt for so long
If you knew how
I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you've done

Feels like home to me, feels like home to me
Feels like I'm on my way back where I come from
Feels like home to me, feels like home to me
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

Feels like home to me, feels like home to me
Feels like I'm all the way the back where I come from
Feels like home to me, feels like home to me
Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

We played this song at our wedding over 6 years ago.. it was perfect for us, as we were childhood sweethearts but my parents moved us to Georgia from Ohio, back in those days there weren’t cell phones and long distance was expensive, so we lost touch. We’d both grown up and gotten married and in different relationships, and each of us had children..7 years ago, while going through a divorce, I swore I was done with relationships! My childhood sweetheart and I became friends from Facebook and from the minute he took me in his arms, in the middle of a truck stop ( yes he’s a trucker) I knew I was home! He’s what I had been missing my whole life!

I love your story. I was hoping I would reunite with my hs sweetheart. He is still happily married. My choices were not good, except I was blessed with my precious son in 1984. Sadly, I lost him April 22, 2023. 🙏 💔

My first love was also a trucker! We met when I was 18. He married and lived life like an act from a play. Played the part but didn’t love her. I’m 45 now, they’re separated and we are dating this past 5 months. He just continues to say ‘I’m home’ when he lies with his head on my shoulder. I’ve never married, dated guys, trying to find that feeling I had with him and never found it. In a sense I was playing a part too. I have always loved him, even when we disagreed or i got frustrated that he was in the most miserable of marriages. We were out recently and someone asked ‘is this your first date?’ When we said no, we’ve been friends for over 27 years the guy was shocked. He said the laughs and chatting out of us was fantastic. Maybe we’ve saved the best for last?! ❤
