"Be Your Home" lyrics

I didn't want to leave you
But I was just eighteen
Without any ounce
Of knowing you needed me to
Get you the hell out of that house

And now that you're grown
I hope that you don't
Hold it against me that I had to go
I should have picked up the phone
Should have watched you get older
I should have asked all the right questions so I would know ya

But I can be your home if you'll still let me
I can be your home if you'll still let me

I've worked through excuses
Like I had to heal before I gave back
I think I felt useless
Cause I couldn't save you from our past

And now you're a person
Who's done so much learning
Wish I hadn't treated you like you were a burden
Fed you to the world and
You ended up searching
But I really hope we find each other through the hurting

But I can be your home if you'll still let me
I can be your home if you'll still let me

Oooo...
I can be your home
I can be your home
I can be your home

Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah...
I can be your home
I can be your home
I can be your home
