  • I mistook the warnings for wisdom
    From so called friends quick to advise
    Though your touch was telling me otherwise

    Somehow I saw you as a weakness
    I thought I had to be strong
    Oh but I was just young
    I was scared, I was wrong

    Not a night goes by, I don't dream of wandering
    Through the home that might have been
    I listened to my pride when my heart cried out for you
    Now every day I wake again
    In a house that might have been a home

    Guess I did what I did believing
    That love is a dangerous thing
    Oh but that couldn't hurt anymore
    Than never knowing

    Not a night goes by, I don't dream of wandering
    Through the home that might have been
    I listened to my pride when my heart cried out for you
    Now every day I wake again
    In a house that might have been a home, a home

    Four walls, a roof, a door, some windows
    Just a place to run when my working day is through
    They say home is where the heart is
    If the exception proves the rule I guess that's true

    Not a night goes by, I don't dream of wandering
    Through the home that might have been
    I listened to my pride when my heart cried out for you
    Now every day I wake again
    In a house that might have been a home, a home Writer/s: Maia Sharp, Randy Sharp
