Home/Dirty Paws
Gardiner Sisters Lyrics

Alabama, Arkansas
I have a fondness for my home state and other regions in the South.

I do love my Ma and Pa
I love my parents, but not in the same deep way that I love my partner.

Not the way that I do love you
My affection for you is unique and unmatched by any other love in my life.

Well, holy moly me oh my
I am astounded and awed by the intensity of my feelings for you.

You're the apple of my eye
You are the most important person to me, the center of my attention and affection.

Boy, I've never loved one like you
You are unlike any other person I have ever loved, and I cherish you all the more for it.

Oh man, oh man, you're my best friend
Above all else, you are my closest companion and confidant.

I scream it to the nothingness
My love for you is so great that I cannot contain it, and must proclaim it even if nobody is listening.

There ain't nothing that I need
As long as I have your love and companionship, nothing else in the world matters to me.

Well, hot and heavy pumpkin pie
In the same way that sweet, rich desserts satisfy cravings, being with you provides deep emotional fulfillment.

Chocolate candy, taste so nice
Just as candy is a pleasing indulgence, the experience of being with you is deeply pleasurable and satisfying.

There ain't nothing please me more than you
There is no greater source of happiness and contentment in my life than loving and being with you.

Jumping up and down the floor
I am so consumed with joy and excitement that I can't help but move my body with exuberance.

My head is an animal
My emotions and passions are wild and intense, like the untamed nature of an animal.

And once there was an animal
All living beings have a natural, instinctual drive towards love and companionship.

It had a son that mowed the lawn
Even mundane, everyday tasks can be filled with meaning and purpose when shared with loved ones.

The son was an okay guy
The people we love are not always flawless, but we value their attributes and quirks all the same.

They had a pet dragonfly
Even small creatures can hold great sentimental value and bring us joy when we share them with loved ones.

The dragonfly he ran away
Relationships can be unpredictable and difficult at times, but the love and bond we share endures.

But he came back with a story to say
Even when relationships face challenges, they bring important experiences and stories that add depth and richness to our lives.

Home, let me come home
Above all else, my greatest desire is to be with you, wherever that may be.

Home is wherever I'm with you
How and where we live are less important than being with the people we love and having meaningful connections in our lives.
