Many Places 2 Call Home

(album: Theo Zumm - 2019)

Oh well your smell's forever sort of near the tip top of my spine
I'll be not forever yours if you'll be not forever mine
When we hold hands under starlight tomorrow's the last thing on my mind
When we kiss goodnight well I think I'll sleep just fine

There are many places to call home
This van, your arms, or anywhere I find to be alone
People are like vines and not like stone
We're surprised to look back and see how much we've grown

Well by now we have learned better than to try and hold our tongues
Because if we are too careful, the best songs are left unsung
We push words of past and passion through our tiny soot-filled lungs
Four track tape machines, oh it's only just begun

There are many places to call home
The night sky's a good one 'cause it's there wherever you may roam
Orion's just as bright as it was on our bike ride six nights ago
Buildings are furniture and are great big residential zone

Last night's conversation, now it's very plain to see
The way that I miss him's the same as the way that he misses me
And it does make me feel better just to know we both agree
The best way to love someone is to set them free

There are many places to call home
Cliché words on the lips of every lover when they find they've been left alone
Journals of our past and of the places and people we've known
And palettes to paint our futures to make them our own
