They say it’s where the Heart is
And now I know that’s true
Maybe not the whole thing
But a piece enjoys the view

The air’s a little sweeter
The sky is brighter blue
The people smile bigger
To my town I’m always due

I left you for a while
But then again came back
It’s strange how with each mile
Returned the life I lacked

The threshold that read ‘welcome’
I now read upside down
I hold back tears of sadness
Remembering I’ll come back round

See that’s the part that gets me
That the doormat will do its job
No longer do I welcome
But stand before the doorknob
