Feels Like Home
Melissa Etheridge & Josh Kelley Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That everything can change
What I feel right now
Is not the same as yesterday
Theres more than I imagined
Deep inside my heart
Emotions that I never knew
So many things I've been missing
Not watching but, that was all in the past
Now I realize
There's so much more to learn,
I'm ready for the world
Not scared of letting go
Now I realize
There's so much more to feel
And my heart knows it's real
The part of me, so long forgotten,
Is calling, and this feels like home
Home, home, feels just like home
(Feels just like home)
Learning how to smile again
Free to show my heart
Knowing I can face the things
That used to seem too hard
I look inside your eyes and see
A different part of me
What I didn't know I want in life
You're everything I need
So many things I've been missing
Not watching but, that was all in the past
Now I realize
There's so much more to learn,
I'm ready for the world
Not scared of letting go
Now I realize
There's so much more to feel
And my heart knows it's real
The part of me, so long forgotten,
Is calling, and this feels like home
Home, home, it feels just like home
(Feels just like home)
Right from the start, been friends forever
But somehow we're meant to be together
I feel like you show me
How to find my way home
Now I realize, feels just like home
(Feels just like home)
Feels just like home
(Feels just like home)
Feels like home
Now I realize
There's so much more to learn,
I'm ready for the world
Not scared of letting go
Now I realize
There's so much more to feel
And my heart knows it's real
The part of me, so long forgotten,
Is calling, and this feels like home
This feels like home, home, home
Feels just like home
Feels just like home
The song "Feels Like Home" is a beautiful expression of a person who has learned to embrace their vulnerability, feel their emotions, and accept the changes that come with that. The first verse lays the foundation for the theme of transformation: everything can change, and what we feel now is not the same as yesterday. This is followed by the revelation that there is more to us than we know, deep inside our hearts. The second verse talks about the journey of discovery, which involves letting go of fear and embracing all the things we've been missing. The chorus reinforces the idea that this is just the beginning and that there is so much more to learn and feel.
The bridge of the song introduces the love interest who seems to have played a significant role in the singer's journey of self-discovery. The lyrics suggest that this person has shown the singer a different part of themselves that they didn't know they wanted, and that everything they need is encapsulated in this relationship. The song closes with a repetition of the chorus, affirming that the transformation process was, in fact, homecoming.
