lyrics

Found the key where you said it would be - underneath the welcome mat
Opened up that creaky door & was greeted by your chesire cat
Tiptoed going up the stairs to the room that you call mine
You left a little night light on so I wouldn’t stumble blind

I put my stuff down over in the corner - same place that I always do
Saw you’d left me a stack of towels - extra blankets like you always do
The pillows, they were piled high - you’d already made the bed
You left a note where you knew I’d see it but I already knew what it said

There’s food in the oven - I only have to heat it up
Whatever’s in the fridge - I should help myself and eat it up
Coffee in the freezer - filters in the cabinet
Anything I find in the cupboard...not to be shy about having it
I’m home away from home again...home away from home again

You drew a map of the neighborhood - showed me where to catch my train
All the way to San Jose & then back to Jamaica Plain
You said you’d be gone early in the morning - but you’d be back home by dark
You left directions to the post office & to the best cafe & a nice little park

So I turned the night light out & I lay down in my very own bed
Fell asleep with a smile on my face & sweet dreams in my head
I was home away from home again - with a cat purring at my feet
Home away from home again - and you sure do make it sweet

There’s food in the oven - I only have to heat it up
Whatever’s in the fridge - I should help myself and eat it up
Coffee in the freezer - filters in the cabinet
Anything I find in the cupboard...not to be shy about having it
I’m home away from home again...home away from home again

Found the key where you said it would be - underneath the welcome mat...
