Home Sweet Home
Ofln - Mötley Crüe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But my heart's of gold
I had to run away high
So I wouldn't come home low
Just when things went right
It doesn't mean they were always wrong
Just take this song and you'll never feel left all alone
Take me to your heart
Just one more night
And I'm comin' off this long and winding road
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
Home sweet home
Tonight, tonight
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
Home sweet home
You know that I've seen
Too many romantic dreams
Up in lights, fallin' off the silver screen
My heart's like an open book
For the whole world to read
Sometimes nothing keeps me together at the seams
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
Home sweet home
Tonight tonight
I'm on my way
Just set me free
Home sweet home
Home sweet home
Home sweet home
Home sweet home
Ooh, I'm on my way
I'm on my way
Home sweet home
Yeah
I'm on my way
Just set me free
Home sweet home
The song Home Sweet Home by Mötley Crüe is an anthem for restless dreamers who have run away from their problems to find their true selves. The lyrics are very personal to the band members since they were on a long tour at the time and had been away from home for a long time. The opening line 'You know I'm a dreamer, but my heart's of gold,' is a direct reference to the band's struggles and their determination. The lyrics 'I had to run away high so I wouldn't come home low' suggest that they couldn't face going back home until they have conquered their problems.
The phrase 'just one more night, and I'm coming off this long and winding road' gives listeners the sense of the band's yearning for home. When they sing 'take me to your heart, feel me in your bones,' they seem to be referring to their fans as a collective entity that will always be with them no matter how far they travel. The song's chorus is an affirmation of the band's return home after all their struggles, and they sing it with a sense of hope and triumph.

You know I'm a dreamer
I have high hopes and aspirations
But my heart's of gold
I am a good-natured person
I had to run away high
I had to leave in order to avoid hitting rock bottom
So I wouldn't come home low
I didn't want to face defeat or failure
Just when things went right
Even when things were going well
It doesn't mean they were always wrong
It's important to remember that mistakes are part of the journey
Just take this song and you'll never feel left all alone
This song will always be there for you, providing comfort and solace
Take me to your heart
Accept me and my music into your life
Feel me in your bones
Let the music move you deeply
Just one more night
I only need one more night before I'm done with my current struggle
And I'm comin' off this long and winding road
I'm almost at the end of a difficult journey
I'm on my way
I'm making progress towards my goal
Home sweet home
I'm returning to a place where I feel safe and comfortable
Tonight, tonight
It's finally happening tonight
You know that I've seen
I have experienced
Too many romantic dreams
Many of my dreams were unrealistic and idealistic
Up in lights, fallin' off the silver screen
My dreams were often tied to fame and glamour
My heart's like an open book
I wear my heart on my sleeve and am emotionally vulnerable
For the whole world to read
My feelings are evident to everyone
Sometimes nothing keeps me together at the seams
Sometimes I feel like I'm coming apart at the seams
Just set me free
Allow me to be myself and pursue my own path
