Home Sweet Home


The day I stepped out of the house
To begin a journey of my own
Tough I had my friends with me
Yet I was all alone

I remember the tears that had filled my eyes
The tears that I refused to shed
The tears that were soon forgotten
As I looked at my life ahead

I embarked on a new phase
Which began with a night and a day
Though the trip was a short one
The journey was a long way

A minute had not passed
When I didn’t miss my home
Yet I felt they were with me
That it was a home away from home

This trip changed my life
It will never be the same again
For the trip taught me independence
Which won’t be a loss, but a gain

I know now that I have to move on
Round the world I have to roam
And with pride I will roam around
Because to look back I have my home sweet home
