One place

A summer evening; I walk past the window,
Baby’s crying; someone’s cooking dinner;
There’s laughter on the TV
Someone’s learning the violin.
How at home, it heals
At times like this, I feel that…
I would like to live like anybody else
In one place
And I could be happy and fulfilled
In one place…

One Place
Everything But The Girl

There are lots of songs about home and ‘One Place’ is one of my favorites from EBTG (Everything But The Girl). It has a cool beat and wistful melody and the pensive lyrics are so apt for those who travel a lot and missing their homes while on the road.

While I always appreciate the different sights and experiences when going to other places, these trips also make me value more the place where I come from, and that’s home.
