JOHN MAYER - HOME LIFE LYRICS

Home Life Lyrics

I think I'm gonna stay home
Have myself a little home life
Sitting in the slow-mo
And listening to the daylight
I am not a nomad
I am not a rocket man
I was born a housecat
By the slight of my mother's hand

I think I'm gonna stay home

I want to live in the center of a circle
I want to live on the side of a square
I used to be in my M-Z now
You'll never find me 'cause my name isn't there

Home life
Been holding out for the home life
My whole life

I want to see the end game
I want to learn her last name
Finish on a Friday
And sit in traffic on the highway
See, I refuse to believe
That my life's gonna be
Just some string of incompletes
Never lead me to anything remotely close to a home life

Been holding out for the home life
My whole life

I can tell you this much
I will marry just once
And if it doesn't work out
Give her half of my stuff
It's fine with me
We said eternity
And I will go to my grave
With the life that I gave
Not just some melody line
On a radio wave
It dissipates
And soon evaporates
But home life doesn't change

I want to live in the center of a circle
I want to live on the side of a square
I'd love to walk where we both can talk but
I've got to leave you 'cause my ride is here

Home life
You keep the home life
You take the home life
I'll come back for the home life
I promise

i LOVE this song, i LOVE john mayer. he's my fav singer, and i only REALLY got to like him and his songs when my sib got the cd. i think i like him more than my sib! plus, my mom probly likes him too, atleast doesn't mind his music, because it has like, 0 curse words and all that stuff that parents DONT like, along with really good songs.
i'd heard of him before, but now, i really like his music. especially:

Home life
Clarity
Daughters
Wheel
New deep
Bigger than my Body
Something's missing

and lots more!!!

I love this song (Among most of his CD. . . It's started wearing out). But a weird observation I've had. . . has anyone else noticed that when he says "Daylight", it sounds like "day-la" (His nickname for his bass player, David LaBruyere). Maybe it's just me though.

i am listening ti heavier things and just now the words of homelife hit me, the part about getting married just once... thats EXACTLY what i have been saying to my friends and family for years, because i want to be sure that when i get married im doing the right thing, this is my one shot and if doesnt work then that means that i had my time married and next will be something else... i think its just the idea that a real homelife is built off of a mutual love and a trust that the 2 of you are in it for the long haul, and to achieve that you cant just start over again when things dont fit to plan exactly

wow this song definitely hits me. he basically stated my actual dream and i want a guy exactly like that. this is just too perfect of a song to believe! i can not even express how much i love john mayer. he amazes me...but i have to admit i love him so much becuz every dong i hear by him someohow forces me to think of the guy i am in love with, basically the boy next door (well 2 doors down but who cares?)if i could ask john one question it would be will u marry me? haha but really

Has Home Life hit anyone yet other than me?
This is an awesome song, I saw John this past summer and he rocked out. I'm seeing him again hopefully on Nov 16 in Austin. It doesnt get any better than " I can tell you this much, I will marry just once and if it doesnt work out ill give her half of my stuff, its fine with me....we said eternity...." John gets me through my rough days of thinking about old love gone wrong. My roomates prolly hate me cause I always have a cd on or he's in the dvd player on any given thursday.... They'll just have to get used to my HOME LIFE!

I like this song a lot. It's about settling down, and living life easy and relaxing. Having a routine and liking it. I wish I even knew someone that felt like john mayer.. Marrying just once? I love it
