Home Is
Disney Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A place of warmth and wonder
Home is
The sea and all that's
Underneath the waves
We splash and play
Where angelfish roam
And sometimes being
Home is
A funny Flounder swimming
Home is
A group of guppies grinning
Floating by
Below the tide
You're never alone
When you look around and see a friendly fin
It's home
Wishin' on a starfish in the sand
Or being in a private place
That's all your own
Home's an underwater wonderland
You're always welcome
Home is
A feeling deep inside you
Home is
Your heart will always guide you
There again, to all your friends
Anywhere you roam
For home is love
And love is always home
Love is always home
Love is always home
The song "Home Is" from Disney's classic animated movie "The Little Mermaid" is a beautifully written and heartfelt piece that conveys the importance of having a place to call home. The first verse describes home as a place of warmth and wonder and mentions the sea and all that's underneath the waves. The second verse goes on to mention the various creatures that can be found in the sea, such as angelfish and guppies, and how they never leave you feeling alone. The chorus emphasizes the sense of community and comfort that comes with being at home, whether it's in the company of friends or in a private haven all your own. The final verse brings the focus back to the importance of love and how it is always connected to the idea of home.
The lyrics of "Home Is" evoke a strong sense of nostalgia and longing for a place to belong. The imagery of the underwater world and the creatures that inhabit it make the song feel like a dreamy and magical escape. The use of repetition in the chorus reinforces the idea that home is a constant and reliable presence in our lives, no matter where we go or what we do. The song ultimately celebrates the universal need for connection and love, and the idea that they are always within reach as long as we have a place to call home.

There is the YouTube user called “Freaky Attractions” who writes lots of theme park themed creepypastas. I think that he should write a story that portrays this is an horrifying way.

Yeah, because creating gated communities and distancing them from reality is such a wonderful and totally not manipulative concept. Sounds like the beginning of a dystopian novel. Way to go Disney.
