Feels Like Home
Svefn-G-Englar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't wanna fall in love
Thought i told you so
Remember jugging on that block
Like a week ago
I'm a sad boy
Yeah i thought i told you so
All i ever really wanted
Was to feel at home
The light in your eyes
Shines at the brightest of times
And when you're not here
I can't feel anything clear
I don't wanna fall in love
Thought i told you so
Remember jugging on the block
Like a week ago
I'm a sad boy
Yeah i thought i told you so
All i ever really wanted
Was to feel at home
All i ever really wanted
Was to feel at home
All i ever really wanted
Was to feel at home
All i ever really wanted
Was to feel at home
There was a time when i didn't care
Who was there
Now I'm dreaming of your fingers
Running through my hair
Remember when i couldn't tell
You that i want you here
All the while we were living our
Lives unaware
Remember when i asked you
Who he was
And you just stared
You were the only girl that
Shared that tender love and care
I will never take your love for granted
That's a swear
Was the only guy that told you
That'd i'd be right there
I don't wanna fall in love
Thought i told you so
Remember jugging on that block
Like a week ago
I'm a sad boy
Yeah i thought i told you so
All i ever really wanted
Was to feel at home
All i ever really wanted
Was to feel at home
All i ever really wanted
Was to feel at home
All i ever really wanted
Was to feel at home
All i ever really wanted
Was to feel at home




All i ever really wanted
Was to feel at home
