Feels Like Home
Jessie Leigh Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

New York City it's a Friday night and we're on vacation
Down on Second Street
Crowds are screamin' loud
People all around
Rain is pourin' down
But babe I'm with you
And when I'm with you
When I'm in your arms
No matter where we are
It feels like home
It feels like home
You feel like home

Crowded bar it's a smokey room and we're out with friends and we'll
Stay out all night long
Catch my eye and you take me dancin'
Spin me 'round the floor
Fall into your arms
Pull me tight to you

When I'm in your arms
No matter where we are
It feels like home
It feels like home
You feel like home

When I'm out on the road how I miss you
Don't know how long it will be 'til I'm with you
Oh
So I think about
And I dream about

When I'm in your arms
No matter where we are
It feels like home
It feels like home

When I'm in your arms
No matter where we are
It feels like home
You feel like home




I miss you home
You feel like home

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of Jessie Leigh's song, "Feels Like Home" describe being in New York City on a Friday night on vacation. The city is busy and filled with people, but none of that matters because they are with the one they love. The song is about the feeling of being with someone you love and how it doesn't matter where you are as long as you are together. The chorus, "When I'm in your arms, no matter where we are, it feels like home," is repeated throughout the song to emphasize the idea that being with the person you love feels like home, no matter where you are in the world.


The second verse describes being out with friends at a crowded bar. Again, the setting is not important because the only thing that matters is being with the person they love. The song's bridge says, "When I'm out on the road, how I miss you, don't know how long it will be 'till I'm with you," which shows that even when they are away from each other, they still feel the presence of the person in their life. The song ends with the line, "I miss you home, you feel like home," further emphasizing the idea that home is wherever they are together. It is a romantic song that celebrates the feeling of being with the one you love and how it can make any place feel like home.
