Homesick
Kyle Sparkman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Donny just stole my boat. Where did he go, where did he go
He left me in the ocean on a float. Where will I go, oh where will I go

I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, hey
But I hope, yeah I hope that I'll be okay
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, hey
Where'd you go, where'd you go
I get so sick when I'm alone
I out here floatin' on my own
I gotta find my way back home
I get so sick when I'm alone

The tide was so strong today, it pulled me away, pulled me away
I didn't know what to say, so I'm driftin' away, driftin' away

I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, hey
But I hope, yeah I hope that I'll be okay
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, hey
Where'd you go, where'd you go

I get so sick when I'm alone
I out here floatin' on my own
I gotta find my way back home
I get so sick when I'm alone

Coldwater seaweed jellyfish free me
My face is burnin' but my toes are freezin'
Sunshine screamin' while I'm dreamin' waves please take me home

Take me home, take me home, take me home, hey
I just hope yeah I just hope that I'll be okay
Take me home, take me home, take me home, hey
Take me home, take me home

I get so sick when I'm alone
I out here floatin' on my own
I gotta find my way back home




I get so sick when I'm alone
Oooooooh
