Lyrics[]
Quiet fireside, doors that open wide
Smiles that welcome me home
Hands that take my hand, hearts that understand
What it means to be home
All the wandering and the wondering
Where could I find
That little world of love I saw
So clear in my mind?
Now it’s here at last, all my troubles passed
Nevermore I’ll have to roam
I’m home, I’m home
All the happiness with those you care for
When you finally know what you’re there for
And it’s wonderful how suddenly
You’re in the place where you belong
All the sharing that makes life worth living
And the pleasure you get ‘cause you’re giving
And it’s wonderful how all at once you’re
Where you wished for all along
I’m home
