I'm staring out into the night,
Trying to hide the pain.
I'm going to the place where love
And feeling good don't ever cost a thing.
And the pain you feel's a different kind of pain.
I'm going home,
Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me.
I'm not running from.
No, I think you got me all wrong.
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces are getting old
So I'm going home.
Well I'm going home.
The miles are getting longer, it seems,
The closer I get to you.
I've not always been the best man or friend for you.
But your love, remains true.
And I don't know why.
You always seem to give me another try.
So I'm going home,
Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me.
I'm not running from.
No, I think you got me all wrong.
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces are getting old.
Be careful what you wish for,
'Cause you just might get it all.
You just might get it all,
And then some you don't want.
Be careful what you wish for,
'Cause you just might get it all.
You just might get it all, yeah.
Oh, well I'm going home,
Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me.
I'm not running from.
No, I think you got me all wrong.
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces are getting old.
I said these places and these faces are getting old.
So I'm going home.
I'm going home.

vocal This song gives me chills every time I hear it (which is pretty often, cause i have the Daughtry album on "repeat all" in the CD player of my truck)...it's about coming back home to what is comfortable, rather than what is unfamiliar...I love this song, and I love this album...there is not a single bad song...no, there isnt even a single mediocre song on this album...although I wasn't impressed by Chris's performance on Jimmy Kimmel the other night...still, this album is NUTS...unbelieveably amazing

vocal This song is so great! It reminds me of my best friends. I met them all at college, and through various experiences we became almost like a family. They're closer to me then my own family and I love them til the end of time. This one is for the dysfunction...whom I run to when things get rough. Love you guys...

vocal Do you guys really think that this song is about going home to somewhere that is familiar?
cause i'm thinkings its more of a song about God.
especially the part that says "i'm going home, Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me."
meaning, he's going to Heaven, where he belongs. and where God's love is eternal.
and the part that says "i dont regret this life chose for me"
saying, he doesn't regret the life that God gave him?
AND. the part that says "But your love, remains true.
And I don't know why.
You always seem to give me another try."
Gods love does remain true, and he WILL always give you another try.
i dunno. maybe its just me. but this songs seems more about God, and going home to heaven, then going back to somewhere familiar.

vocal This song is AMAZING I live about 15 minutes from Greensboro where Chris is from so this song has really touched me. It is on the Greensboro/Winston-Salem radio non-stop and I love it. I hope that Daughtry continues to come up with wonderful songs!
A reply to the statement that it could be about God or Heaven...this is possible and I'm not trying to rule it out, just informing that if you watch the video it is of a FREE concert that was held in Greensboro which is Chris' hometown.

vocal I'm very happy that Chris and the band broke through!
He deserved to be the American Idol, but still he showed
everybody that you don't have to be number one in a TV show
to have a great songs and albums!
