I go back to that place
To get a waft of the honey suckle
And bound for the big tank,

I go back to that place
To see my best friend
To be a kid again

I go back to that place
To croon as loud as I want,
And to hollow out the earth,

That place is my dwelling
If I live there or not
It’ll always be the place my spirit flutters free

It may not be the most beautiful
Or the most well-kept,
But that place,

That place is where the heart is.

Home will always be where your heart will be. I moved from a house that I lived in all my life and I miss it!
