Feels Like Home

Sara Groves-Every Minute

I am long on staying I am slow to leave Especially when it comes to you my friend You have taught me slow down And to prop up my feet It's the fine art of being who I am
And I can't figure out Why you want me around I'm not the smartest person I have ever met But somehow that doesn't matter No it never really mattered to you at all
And at the risk of wearing out my welcome At the risk of self-discovery I'll take every moment And every minute that you'll give me
And I can think of time when families all lived together Four generations in one house And the table was full of good food And friends and neighbors That's not how we like it now
Cause if you sit at home you're a loser Couldn't you find anything better to do Well no I couldn't think of one thing I would rather waste my time on than sitting here with you
And at the risk of wearing out my welcome At the risk of self-discovery I'll take every moment And every minute that you'll give me
And I wish all the people I love the most Could gather in one place And know each other and love each other well
And I wish we could all go camping And lay beneath the stars And have nothing to do and stories to tell We'd sit around the campfire And we'd make each other laugh remembering when You're the first one I'm inviting Always know that you're my friend
And at the risk of wearing out my welcome At the risk of self-discovery I'll take every moment And every minute that you'll give me Every moment and every minute that you'll give me Every moment and every minute that you'll give me Every minute
