  • I'm a phoenix in the water
    A fish that's learned to fly
    And I've always been a daughter
    But feathers are meant for the sky
    So I'm wishing, wishing further
    For the excitement to arrive
    It's just I'd rather be causing the chaos
    Than laying at the sharp end of this knife

    With every small disaster
    I'll let the waters still
    Take me away to some place real

    'Cause they say home is where your heart is set in stone
    Is where you go when you're alone
    Is where you go to rest your bones
    It's not just where you lay your head
    It's not just where you make your bed
    As long as we're together, does it matter where we go?
    Home, home, home, home

    So when I'm ready to be bolder
    And my cuts have healed with time
    Comfort will rest on my shoulder
    And I'll bury my future behind
    I'll always keep you with me
    You'll be always on my mind
    But there's a shining in the shadows
    I'll never know unless I try

    With every small disaster
    I'll let the waters still
    Take me away to some place real

    'Cause they say home is where your heart is set in stone
    Is where you go when you're alone
    Is where you go to rest your bones
    It's not just where you lay your head
    It's not just where you make your bed
    As long as we're together, does it matter where we go?
    Home, home, home, home, home, home, home, home

    'Cause they say home is where your heart is set in stone
    Is where you go when you're alone
    Is where you go to rest your bones
    It's not just where you lay your head
    It's not just where you make your bed
    As long as we're together, does it matter where we go?
    Home, home, home, home, home, home, home, home Writer/s: Gabrielle Aplin, Nicholas William Atkinson
