A Place To Call Home lyrics

I stumbled across

A figure unknown,

Alive, but alone,

Lost in his dreaming.

I stumbled because

That figure alone

He must have known

What I was thinking:

That's no place to call home.

I've stumbled before,

And I'll stumble again.

I wish I'd known then

How to give shelter.

A place to call home.

I'll stumble some more,

But I'll seize the day, then

We'll see the day when

It's not much to ask for:

A place to call home.

Sure as home is where the heart is

Homelessness is heartless and cruel.

Home...

If the heart is where the home is,

Aren't we all homeless too?

I stumbled again

On that figure now known,

No longer alone,

Secure and with shelter.

I stumbled and then

I saw how he'd grown

In a place of his own.

So if home's where the heart is

Then surely it's smartest to start

Helping figures unknown.

Then we'll all have a place...

A place to call home.

A place to call home.
