My Home
Embracing Forever: Love's Warmth in 'My Home' by Joey Adams
Lyrics
Smoke keeps rollin' from the chimney in the roof
Describing the smoke coming from the chimney of the home.
Stove inside is burnin' hot
Indicating a hot stove inside the house.
And the snow does fall oh another inch or two
Observing the falling snow, adding a wintry atmosphere.
Darlin's cookin' up a slop
Referring to someone (Darlin') cooking a meal.
I don't know if this can last forever
Expressing uncertainty about the duration of the current situation.
But I'm okay as long as we're together
Feeling content as long as the narrator is with their loved one.
And I'll keep on lovin' you til the river runs dry
Committing to love until the metaphorical river runs dry.
And I'll keep on holdin' you well into the night
Promising to hold the partner throughout the night.
When the fire dies on down
Anticipating the eventual decrease of the fire's warmth.
And the warmth is all but gone
Describing the diminishing warmth as the fire dies down.
I'll be here with you
Expressing a commitment to stay with the partner.
My honey, my sweet
Endearing terms for the loved one - "My honey, my sweet."
My home
Referring to the partner as "My home."
And I hear creakin' from those four wood walls
Noticing sounds from the wooden walls, creating a cozy atmosphere.
The wind blowing something fierce
Describing strong wind outside, contrasting with the warmth inside.
It seems every minute more in love with you I fall
Expressing increasing love for the partner with each passing minute.
Something I ain't felt for years and years
Feeling a depth of love not experienced in many years.
I don't know if this can last forever
Reiterating uncertainty about the longevity of the current situation.
