Home is more than walls and doors, It’s where our heart forever soars. It’s where we laugh, where we belong, A place of love, a comforting song. It's in the quiet, soft and sweet, The smell of dinner, the feeling of feet, On familiar floors where we stand tall, In a space that welcomes us through it all. Home isn’t just where we lay our head, It’s the warmth of the words that are said. It’s in the touch of a hand that’s near, A hug, a smile, a voice we hold dear. Home can travel, it can move, It’s the place where our hearts improve. It’s a person, a moment, a memory so bright, A sense of peace that feels just right. Though we may wander, far and wide, Home stays with us, a trusted guide, It lives in songs, in scents, in light, In every shadow, in day and night. Home is where we’re free to fall, Where we can rise, and stand tall, It’s where mistakes are met with grace, Where love surrounds us, in every space. Home is the place we long to be, It's where we’re loved, where we are free. A place to rest, to dream, to grow, Where love will always overflow. No matter where we go, it’s clear, Home will always bring us near. A place to heal, to laugh, to roam, Home is where our hearts call home.
