Far From Home
[Style]
Folk Ballad, Acoustic, Melancholic
[Lyrics]
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
The rain taps softly on the window pane
Another sunset paints a gray sky's stain
This borrowed room feels cold and incomplete
An empty chair beside an empty seat
The city lights, a distant, foreign glow
Remind me of a place I used to know
[Chorus]
Oh, this ache inside, a heavy, constant stone
This hollow feeling when I'm not at home
The world outside just fades to shades of gray
If not at home, then sadness finds its way
If not at home, the light begins to roam
Leaving only shadows in this heart, so far from home
[Verse 2]
I catch a scent upon the evening breeze
Like blooming jasmine swaying through the trees
Back where the porch light welcomed me inside
Where laughter echoed, open, warm, and wide
Now unfamiliar faces pass me by
Beneath a vast and unfamiliar sky
[Chorus]
Oh, this ache inside, a heavy, constant stone
This hollow feeling when I'm not at home
The world outside just fades to shades of gray
If not at home, then sadness finds its way
If not at home, the light begins to roam
Leaving only shadows in this heart, so far from home
[Bridge]
The pictures on the wall, they smile so still
A captured moment time can never k**l
But silence fills the spaces in between
Where vibrant life and simple joys had been
The miles stretch out, a weary, winding thread
Connecting to the dreams inside my head
[Chorus]
Oh, this ache inside, a heavy, constant stone
This hollow feeling when I'm not at home
The world outside just fades to shades of gray
If not at home, then sadness finds its way
If not at home, the light begins to roam
Leaving only shadows in this heart, so far from home
[Outro]
