Nellie McKay - Forever Home Lyrics

Nellie McKay Lyrics

"Forever Home"

And a kind of misery
Comes a-creepin' over me
I've got nothin' left to lose
'Cept these weary blues
I'll do almost anything
Pinochet and robins sing
No way out and nothin's right
Can this be a sign

Forever home
Nevermore forever roam
Over hill and mountain
Home is where the heart would rather be
Patiently

I've got nothin' left to give
Lost the only life I'll live
Truckstop treats and midnight booze
Sloughin' off the mews
Cabin fever which way out
Drugstore season mixed with doubt
Lost the inky recipe
Can this be a dream

Forever home
Nevermore forever roam
Here with love beside me
Home is where the heart would rather be
Patiently

Forever well
Home is where I'll ever dwell
Here with love to guide me
Flowing there, a hearth for you and me
Faithfully

Manic scenes of lethargy
Miles to go before I weep
Wonder what lies next in store
Can this be a door

Forever home
Nevermore forever roam
Over hill and mountain
Home is where the heart would rather be
Patiently

Forever well
Home is where I'll ever dwell
Love an endless fountain
Flowing there, a hearth for you and me
Faithfully

Find a rubble rin tin tin
Time for trouble mixed with gin
All my life has just begun
Could you be the one
