lyrics

home, home, home...

we were young
lighting a fire under what we wanted
set a blaze through the hills
we were runnin’ from a place we called
home

the road was long
but burnin’ embers kept you on it
even when the rain fell
rain fell down
but after a while the geese fly by
and you find yourself under ‘em
not here nor there,
not there nor here,
no, we were
home, home, home...

she walked through the sand
a white flag in her hand
with a boy too wise for his years
he’d been chokin’ on the tears he cried for
home, home...

no concrete floor, no key to lock no door
no door for no key
just a blanket underfoot and she is
home, home, home...
home, home, home...

and when you feel it
it makes you stronger
and when you feel it
on, and on, and on, and on...
and when you feel it, it makes you stronger
and when you feel it on and on and on and on

Just a warm, easy listen. The love for the songs is apparent. Takes me back to days spent working on my car in the driveway in SoCal. Hope they do another one cause I'm gonna wear this on out. Aloha beauishere

Wow. One of those rare instant-impact albums. I came to it the "wrong" way round, already familiar with Allison's outstanding Outside Child - one of the finest albums of the past 12 months. And it's in the same plane - albeit different from her solo masterpiece, though with many similar characteristics, such as on Travelers and Roisin Starchild. Love in Wartime hits so many peaks - in musicianship, lyrics, genres and especially melody. Neville Dalton
