Subject: Lyr Add: HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS (John Farry) From: Brack& Date: 20 Oct 98 - 08:30 AM Daniel O'Donnell sing this one called Home Is Where The Heart Is but it might be a different song altogether. Regards Mick Bracken. HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS As the raindrops are falling, I can hear your voice calling, Calling me back once again. I've been away for too long, But now I'm coming home, Back to your loving arms again. I miss the countryside so fair, And the good folk that live there. I've missed your tender kisses and your smile. Now I'm not too far away. I'm coming home today, And soon my feet will touch my native soil. CHORUS: And we'll do all the old things that we've always done: Dancing, romancing, together as one. Home is where the heart is and my heart's with you. No matter where I travel, I'm coming home to you. The taxicab is waiting As I step down off the plane, 'Cause I won't wait to catch the morning train, For now I'm returning Where the home fire's always burning, To the one I love who's waiting there for me. CHORUS |

Subject: Lyr Add: HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS (Connie Gately From: Genie Date: 16 Jan 03 - 05:15 PM Bill, your link doesn't work any more as a link to song lyrics. I have a song called ""Home Is Where The Heart Is" on a mostly bluegrass CD by Old & In The Way. I'm wondering if this is the one that your link used to take folks to. Here are the lyrics, as well as I can transcribe them from hearing it. If anyone can fix the errors, please do. Genie HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS (Connie Gately) On Stargate Records in 1961 by Connie & Joe. On "Breakdown" (recorded live at The Boarding House, San Francisco, 1973) by Old & In The Way (Garcia, Grisman, Kahn, Clements, & Rowan) Nestled in the pine trees in the mountains, Down along the road I love so well. There I know my dear old mother's waiting Waiting, and I know she always will. CHORUS: Home Is Where The Heart Is, they tell me. Many men have tried to travel that lonesome road. They'll never find a pal as sweet as mother. They'll never find a place as sweet as home. Now many years ago I left my old home, Started out to ramble all around. If ever I return to where I came from, I'll build a little home and settle down. |

Subject: RE: LYR REQ Home is Where the Heart is From: rich-joy Date: 18 Jan 03 - 05:24 PM Then there's that little number of the same name "written for OSHO" : I've travelled a day I've travelled a year I've travelled a lifetime to find my way home Home is where the heart is Home is where the heart is Home is where the heart is My heart is with you. Builds nicely with simple harmonies. Perfect for those touchy feely occasions! Cheers! R-J |

Subject: Lyr Add: HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS (S Fingerett) From: GUEST Date: 18 Jan 03 - 07:41 PM this is the song the original poster is looking for: HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS couldnt find the author though...i think they got it from the four bitchin' babes. On the corner there's this nice man His name is Mark, He's always smiling He's got this mom who comes on Wednesdays In the evening with soup so steaming He shares his house with his friend Martin They're not brothers, they're not cousins My little girl wonders all about these men I take hold of her hand, and I begin chorus: Home is where the heart is No matter how the heart lives Inside your heart where love is That's where you've got to make yourself At home Across the yard live Deb and Tricia With their tools and ladders And their room addition My kid yells over, "Are ya having a baby?" They wink and smile, they say, "Someday maybe." But through their doors go kids and mommies Funny how you don't see the daddies go in My little girl wonders 'Bout this house with no men, I take hold of her hand And I begin chorus 'Round the corner, here comes Martin He's alone now, he tries smiling He roams around his well stocked kitchen He knows that fate will soon be coming My little girl wonders where he will live I take hold of her hand and I begin chorus Martin sits and waits with his windows open His house is empty, his heart is broken We bring him toys and watercolors He loves to hear my little baby's stories She's the gift I share She's his companion She's the string on the kite She guides him into the wind My little girl wonders who will care for him We take hold of his hand and we begin [Peter, Paul & Mary recorded this on "Lifelines" (1995).] |

Subject: Lyr Add: HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS (Clive Gregson From: MickT Date: 06 Jul 04 - 06:18 AM Mr Happy :-) The one you're talking about is a Clive Gregson song. HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS As sung by Clive Gregson and Christine Collister on "Home and Away" Well, I've been away such a long time now. My life has changed so much, And I broke my promise that no matter how, I would always keep in touch. I could hear the whisper of the telephone line. I could hear the trains roll by. If I could hear the whistle and the engine's whine, Why can't I hear you cry? Home is where the heart is. Guess who's knockin' on your front door! Is this the friend that you never knew? Oh, why don't you make sure? Home is where the heart is: Three short steps across the floor, Into the arms of the one who loves you, And never roam no more, no more. Well, you tracked me down to a foreign town. The long distance call came through, And a voice that I'd not heard for years Said, "Darling, is that you?" And a voice of my own said I'll be home When I can get these wheels to start, Because it's not my promise that I'll break this time, But someone else's heart. And home is where the heart is. Guess who's knocking on your front door! Is this the friend that you never knew? Oh, why don't you make sure? Home is where the heart is. Take those steps across the floor Into the arms of the one of loves you, To never roam no more, No, never roam no more, no more. [Fairport Convention also sing this song on "Jewel in the Crown" (1995).] |

Subject: Lyr Add: HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS (Ink Spots) From: Jim Dixon Date: 26 Sep 13 - 11:06 PM Yet another song with the same title: HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS As sung by the Ink Spots, 1947. Home is Where the heart is, And my heart is Where my love is, And my love is anywhere you are, Be it near or far, Anywhere you are. And though Dreams may tumble, I'll be grateful; I'll be humble. I'll be happy in the years that go by, For I know I Have you. [Spoken:] Home is Where the heart is, honey, And my heart Is just where my love is, And my love is Any and everywhere you are, Be it near or ever so far, It's anywhere you chance to be. [Sung:] And though Dreams may tumble, I'll be grateful; I'll be humble. I'll be happy in the years that go by, For I know I Have you. |

Subject: Lyr Add: HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS (Elvis Presley From: Jim Dixon Date: 27 Sep 13 - 09:11 PM HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS As sung by Elvis Presley on "I Got Lucky" (1971) Home is where the heart is, And my heart is anywhere you are. Anywhere you are is home. I don't need a mansion On a hill that overlooks the sea. Anywhere you're with me is home. Maybe I'm a rolling stone Who won't amount to much, But everything that I hold dear Is close enough to touch. For home is where the heart is, And my heart is anywhere you are. Anywhere you are is home, Home, home, home, home. [Link Wray also sings this song on "Barbed Wire" (2008).] |
