11 Home Is Where The Heart Is
McFly Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm a lover not a fighter,
Hold me close and Ill take you higher than you've ever been.
Raise your hands and lay down your weapons.
We could turn this around in seconds flat if you believe.

Home is where the heart is.
It's where we started.
Where we belong.
Home is where the heart is.
It's where we started.
Where we belong.

Well light a fire and write a sonnet.
Pin all your hopes and dreams upon it now.
And come and sing with us.
Calling out to your children's children.
Let there be love and let them scream it loud.
Before we bite the dust.

So come on!
Home is where the heart is.
Its where we started.
Where we belong.
Oh were singing!
Home is where the heart is.
It's where we started.
Where we belong.

In these troubled days of anger.
Were afraid of every stranger.
But today were changing history.
Its okay, just sing it with me.

Nows your chance.
Think of your lovers.
We are all sisters and brothers.
Nows your chance.
Think of your lovers.
We are all sisters and brothers.

Home is where the heart is.
It's where we started.
Where we belong.

Home is where the heart is.
It's where we started.
Where we belong.

Home is where the heart is.
It's where we started.
Where we belong.

Home is where the heart is.
It's where we started.
Where we belong.

Home is where the heart is.




It's where we started.
Where we belong.
