Temporary Home

Lyrics

Little boy, six years old
 A little too used to being alone
 
 Another new mom and dad, another school
 Another house that'll never be home
 ♪
 When people ask him how he likes this place
 He looks up and says with a smile upon his face
 This is my temporary home
 It's not where I belong
 Windows in rooms that I'm passing through
 This is just a stop on the way to where I'm going
 I'm not afraid because I know
 This is my temporary home
 ♪
 Young mom on her own
 She needs a little help, got nowhere to go
 She's looking for a job, looking for a way out
 'Cause a half-way house will never be a home
 At night, she whispers to her baby girl
 "Someday we'll find our place here in this world"
 This is our temporary home
 It's not where we belong
 Windows in rooms, now we're passing through
 This is just a stop on the way to where we're goin'
 I'm not afraid because I know
 This is our temporary home
 ♪
 Old man, hospital bed
 The room is filled with people he loves
 And whispers, "Don't cry for me, I'll see you all someday"
 
 He looks up and says, "I can see God's face"
 This is my temporary home
 It's not where I belong
 Windows in the rooms, that I'm passing through
 This was just a stop
 On the way to where I'm goin'
 I'm not afraid because I know
 This was my, temporary home, hmm
 ♪
 This is our temporary home
