The Lights Of Home
Lights of Home: A Love Story Unveiled
Lyrics
Late at night when all the kids are sound asleep,
Late at night, when their children are asleep,
A man and his wife share a glass of wine.
A married couple shares a moment with wine.
They talk about the days before the children came,
They reminisce about life before having kids,
And how much their lives have changed.
Reflecting on how much their lives have changed.
And she says: "I know this is not the life you dreamed about,
The wife acknowledges it's not the life he envisioned,
"Before you chose to share your life with me.
Before committing to life with her.
"And if you could be anywhere on this earth tonight,
She asks where he'd rather be tonight,
"Tell me now, where would that be?"
If he could choose anywhere in the world.
And he says: "Show me, the lights of home,
He responds, wanting to see the familiarity of home,
"And tell me what could ever shine as bright?
Asking what could outshine that comfort.
"Only the love that's in your eyes,
Expresses that only her love brings such joy,
"Could make me feel the way I feel tonight.
Creating the happiness he feels in that moment.
"I'll take the times we've known,
He values the moments they've shared,
"And the lights of home."
And the emotional attachment to home.
Later, as the night has made a turn for dawn,
As the night progresses towards morning,
They find themselves still lying in each other's arms.
They're still wrapped in each other's embrace.
Emotions of the moment mixed with memories.
Emotions blend with memories of the past,
What has been and what might be.
Mixing what was and what might come.
And he says: "I know you could have had your choice of men,
He acknowledges she had other options,
"Well, some who could have brought the world to you.
Others who could offer her the world.
"And even though you can't go back and do it all again.
Even though they can't redo life,
"If you could, what would you do?"
He asks what she would choose if she could.
And she says: "Show me, the lights of home,
She responds, desiring the familiarity of home,
"And tell me what could ever shine as bright?
Asking what could be more radiant.
"Only the love that's in your eyes,
Emphasizes that only his love evokes such feelings,
"Could make me feel the way I feel tonight.
Bringing her immense joy in that moment.
"I'll take the times we've known,
She cherishes the shared experiences,
"And the lights of home."
And the emotional significance of home.
"Give me the times we've known,
She reiterates her desire for the memories they've had,
"And the lights of home."
And the emotional attachment to home.
