A Little Home Songtext / Lyric

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 and 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 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's goin' on?"
