Feels Like Home
Jonny Houlihan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The soft touch, that takes it all away
And when we kiss, it puts my mind at ease
Feels like home to me, yeah
You're like a long walk, on a summer night
Holding hands, underneath a moonlight
And in that moment, I find my sense of peace
Feels like home
Right next to you is where I belong
Safe and warm wrapped up in your arms holding tight, just right
There's no place on earth that I wanna be
Because here with you feels like home to me
I'm going to plant my heart
Put down some roots
And watch it grow
Girl I'm gonna see us through
'Cause I found the one
Who I never wanna leave
And you feels like home to me, yeah
Feels like home
Right next to you is where I belong
Safe and warm wrapped up in your arms holding tight, just right
There's no place on earth that I wanna be
Holding tight, hmph, just right
There's no place on earth that I wanna be
'Cause here with you
Feels like home to me

I am hopelessly in love with this song that feels like a warm and fuzzy pair of flannel pajamas, a bright flickering flame in the fireplace, a soul warming cup of hot chocolate and the smell of comfort food cooking in the kitchen. Home is where the heart is, and you’ve poured your heart and soul into your music, making me feel that you’ve lived every word. Your soothing voice delivers the emotion in the lyrics and makes me feel like I’m home too. Thank you for this spell-binding song that wraps me in the hug I only feel when I’m home. ❤

this is a perfect country song, this is what a country song is supposed to sound and feel like...the melody to the guitar strumming and the beat itself is just spot on. And it really is the best in 2020. So in love with the song, plus love the artist, very few songs like this are hitting the charts, it deserves tons of credit for its beautiful meaningful words.
