Lady Antebellum - Home Is Where The Heart Is Lyrics

Artist: Lady Antebellum

Album: Lady Antebellum

Genre: Country

  • Songwriters: David Wesley Haywood, Charles Kelley, Hillary Scott, Victoria Shaw

I felt I was spinning my wheels
Before too long the road was calling
I packed everything I owned
So sure that I was leaving

This small town life behind for good
And not a single tear was falling
It took leaving for me to understand
Sometimes your dreams just aren't what life has planned

Mama said home is where the heart is
When I left that town
I made it all the way to West Virginia
And that's where my heart found

Exactly where I'm supposed to be
It didn't take much time
It's just south of the Mason Dixon Line
It's just south of the Mason Dixon Line

I worked third shift at an all night diner
Only stayed to save a little money for
Enough gas to make it to the East Coast
That's when I saw the brightest pair of

Deep blue eyes walking straight into my life
And every night we talked till it became so clear
And I could feel those dreams inside shifting gears
'Cause love brought me here

Mama said home is where the heart is
When I left that town
I made it all the way to West Virginia
And that's where my heart found

Exactly where I'm supposed to be
It didn't take much time
It's just south of the Mason Dixon Line
It's just south of the Mason Dixon Line

And I'm standing in my veil about to say I do
As mama smiles with tear drops in her eyes
And then I realize there's something mama always knew
Love is what I really left to find

She said home is where the heart is
When I left that town
I made it all the way to West Virginia
And that's where my heart found

Exactly where I'm supposed to be
It didn't take much time
It's just south of the Mason Dixon Line
It's just south of the Mason Dixon Line

Mama said home is where the heart is
(It's just south of the Mason Dixon Line)
Mama said home is where the heart is
(It's just south of the Mason Dixon Line, Line)

    Well, I love this song! It has a beautiful, yet catchy tune. I don't really like the message, though. That you truly belong at home, and that's where your heart belongs. Grr, no way! I would rather die than return to my family and my old town. Home is definitely not where my heart is! Well, for me anyway!
