Lyrics
I've been living in this van now for nearly two months
The speaker has been living in a van for nearly two months.
We've just stopped in a lay-by to make some lunch
They've stopped in a lay-by to make lunch while on their way to Vienna.
We're heading for Vienna on a cold November day
Heading to Vienna on a cold November day, having traveled two thousand miles.
We've done two thousand miles so I'm sure we'll find our way
Confident that despite the distance, they will find their way to Vienna.
We've got the bare necessities and so far it's been grand
They have the basic necessities and the journey has been enjoyable.
We've woken up to frosty grass and we've woken up to sand
Experiencing varied conditions, from frosty grass to sandy locations.
Living in this little van has helped me realize
Living in the van has brought realizations about a simpler, happier life.
That I don't need a million things to live a happy life
Acknowledging that a million things aren't necessary for a happy life.
Home is where the heart is
Expressing the idea that home is wherever the heart is.
Home is where we are
Reiterating that home is defined by their presence together.
Well in here there's a kitchen and in here there's a bed
Describing the van's interior, including a kitchen and a bed.
I've got a place to keep our clothes and a place to rest our head
The speaker appreciates having space for their belongings and a place to rest.
And we rescued young Delilah a kitten from the east
They rescued a kitten named Delilah from the east.
We took her to Samobor to find a family
Took Delilah to Samobor to find her a family.
Home is where the heart is
Reiterating that home is where the heart is.
Home is where we are
Reaffirming that their presence together defines their home.
Home is where the heart is
Restating the importance of the heart in defining home.
Oh home is where we are
Emphasizing that their shared presence makes a place home.
Life not always simple, no it's not always a breeze
Life is not always simple, acknowledging challenges, but not having rent eases stress.
But not having a rent to pay helps me feel at ease
Despite potential impermanence, the current lifestyle is working for the speaker.
It might not last forever but it's working for me now
Driving to Vienna, and the current lifestyle is bringing comfort.
So I'm driving to Vienna underneath the clouds
Accepting the cold weather on the journey.
Oh and yes it might be colder than a normal house
Admitting waking up to the sound of a mouse.
And I'll admit that we were woken to the squeak of a mouse
Despite challenges, the speaker values stepping out to new destinations.
But the best thing of all is stepping out the door
Highlighting the excitement of exploring a new place every time they step out.
To a brand new destination
Expressing contentment with the constant change of scenery.
Who could ask for anymore
Appreciating the freedom of having a new destination every time they open the door.
Home is where the heart is
Reiterating that home is where the heart is.
Home is where we are
Emphasizing that their shared presence defines their sense of home.
Home is where the heart is
Repeating the idea that home is where the heart is.
Oh home is where we are
Underlining that their shared presence makes any place home.
It's where we are
Repeating the sentiment that home is where they are.
It's where we are
Reaffirming the idea that home is wherever they are together.
It's where we are
Concluding with the notion that home is defined by their shared presence.
