"Home Is By You" lyrics

I woke up this morning
To find the world in very bad shape

Freedom and his brother Faith
Had yet again made some more windows
And it was all live to tape

But then I remembered I had you
And I forgot it all as you said "I love you"
And right then I decided
If a man needs a cause to die for
Then I'll make you mine

Home is by you
Home is by you
Wherever I'll go
You'll stay my truth

Home is by you
Home is by you
Wherever you go
Know that it's true

I wasn't born until I kissed you
I wasn't home until I missed you
I've burned your name on my shoulder
And I'll be your soldier always
For home is by you

Your happiness has got to be the prize
If I ever go to war

And I'll need a promise from God
That you'll be here waiting
To look after my scars

I'm so proud to be yours
I'm writing you anthems
And I can't wait to travel the world to chant them

You see, I've just decided
If a man needs a cause to die for
Then I'll make you mine

Home is by you
Home is by you
Wherever I'll go
You'll stay my truth

Home is by you
Home is by you
Wherever you go
Know that it's true

I wasn't born until I kissed you
I wasn't home until I missed you
I've burned your name on my shoulder
And I'll be your soldier always
For home is by you

And who knows
Maybe one day we'll have our little army
And we'll raise it to soldier for love
And isn't the only way to change the world really
To leave the next ones with a heritage of love?

Home is by you
Home is by you
Wherever I'll go
You'll stay my truth

Home is by you
Home is by you
Wherever you go
Know that it's true

I wasn't born until I kissed you
I wasn't home until I missed you
I've burned your name on my shoulder
And I'll be your soldier always

Home is by you
Home is by you
Wherever I'll go
You'll stay my truth

Home is by you
Home is by you
Wherever you go
Know that it's true

I wasn't born until I kissed you
I wasn't home until I missed you
I've burned your name on my shoulder
And I'll be your soldier always
For home is by you
