A Little Home Lyrics

Fifth floor
She's up in her dorm
Studyin' for her midterms
She's had one of those weeks
Where the world it seems is against her
Right on cue a picture pops up on her laptop
She can't pick her cell phone up fast enough

Sometimes you just need a little home
Some "hey mom and dad what's goin' on?
I'm just checkin' in
No there ain't nothing wrong"
Sometimes you just need a little home

Well he's tired, sits down in the sand
Shoe box in his hand, half a world away
And he smiles when he sees who it's from
He lays down his gun, no he can't wait
Cards and letters and something sweet
He takes a bite and reads
How everybody sends their love, he tears up

Sometimes you just need a little home
A little let you know you're not alone
To carry in your heart
And keep your spirit strong
Sometimes you just need a little home

(Sometimes) I'd 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've been gone way too long"
Yeah way to long
No matter how grown up you get
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's goin' on?"
