A Little Home

[Verse 1] Fifth floor She is up in her dorm Studying for her midterms She is had one of those weeks Where the world it seems is against her Right on cue a picture pops up on her laptop She cannot pick her cell phone up fast enough [Chorus] Sometimes you just need a little home Some "hey mom and dad what is going on? I am just checking in No, there is nothing wrong” Sometimes you just need a little home [Verse 2] Well, he is tired Sits down in the sand Shoe box in his hand Half a world away And he smiles When he sees who it is from He lays down his gun No, he cannot wait Cards and letters and something sweet He takes a bite and reads How everybody sends their love and he tears up [Chorus] Sometimes you just need a little home A little let you know you are not alone To carry in your heart And keep your spirit strong Sometimes you just need a little home Sometimes I would like to drive back through that little town Sometimes And get my feet back on Get my feet back on the ground Sometimes you just need a little home A little "hey, you have been gone way too long" Yeah, way too long No matter how grown up you get Oh, no matter how far you roam Sometimes you just need a little home Home sweet home Sometimes you just need a little home "Hey, mom and dad, what is going on?”
