It feels like home

I spent this evening watching a movie called “My sisters keeper”. I’m not going to spoil it and give away the story or anything like that in fact all I’m going to say is that it’s well worth watching although it is probably the saddest and most hope filled movie I’ve watched in a very long time.

What I actually wanted to comment on is a song on the sound track. It’s a song that I first heard many moons ago at the height of Dawson’s Creek’s popularity, a song that I hadn’t heard or thought of in an absolute age even though it held a special spot in my heart at one stage. Yes I’m a little sentimental in this regard as it was the song that epitomised my ex fiancé in my eyes and the way he made me feel at a time when we were at our happiest. Listening to it tonight was a little bitter sweet because I expected it to make me a little sad thinking about him but the actual eye opener was that the song no longer brings him to mind. It rather evokes a feeling within me and the acceptance that I never needed him to make me feel like I was home but rather that it was all within in me and that was why it felt like home to be with him even though we were completely wrong for each other. I also realised when I read the words which I have posted below that I have been lucky enough to once again find my way home not only to myself but also to those who hold a special spot in my heart and for that reason and that reason alone I am very glad that it once again is starting to feel like I am home

Feels like home

Chantal Kreviazuk

Something in your eyes
Makes me want to lose myself
Makes me want to lose myself
In your arms
There's something in your voice
Makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts
The rest of my life
If you knew how lonely my life has been
And how long I've felt so low
If you knew how I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you've done

Chorus: Feels like home to me
Feels like home to me
Feels like I'm all the way back where
I come from
Feels like home to me
Feels like home to me
Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

A window breaks down a long dark street
And a siren wails in the night
But I'm alright 'cause I have you here with me
And I can almost see through the dark there's light

If you knew how much this moment means to me
And how long I've waited for your touch
If you knew how happy you are making me
I've never thought I'd love anyone so much


Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
