Fifth floor
Shes up in her dorm
Studyin for her midterms
Shes had one of those weeks
Where the world it seems is against her
Right on cue a picture pops up on her laptop
She cant pick her cell phone up fast enough
Sometimes you just need a little home
Some hey mom and dad whats goin on?
Im just checkin in
No there aint nothing wrong
Sometimes you just need a little home
Well hes tired, sits down in the sand
Shoe box in his hand, half a world away
And he smiles when he sees who its from
He lays down his gun, no he cant wait
Cards and letters and something sweet
He takes a bite and reads
How everybody sends their love, he tears up
Sometimes you just need a little home
A little let you know youre not alone
To carry in your heart
And keep your spirit strong
Sometimes you just need a little home
Sometimes
Id like to drive back through that little town
Sometimes
And get my feet back on the ground
Sometimes you just need a little home
A little hey youve been gone way too long
Yeah way to long
No matter how grown up you get
No matter how far you roam
Sometimes you just need a little home
Home sweet home
Sometimes you just need a little home
Hey mom and dad, whats goin on?
