[Verse 1]
Sit with me here in this room, I'm alone, but if you sit with me
Maybe I won't feel like I'm alone
I'll feel like I'm home
I never went through that rebellious phase where my family was lame
And I wanted to be on my own
Now I'm on my own

And I wonder if I've wandered too far away
And if I should stay, or if I should go home

[Verse 2]
If I close my eyes I am practically there, with my dad on the couch
And my mom in her old rocking chair
I used to climb on her lap and she'd rock me to sleep
Read me stories then carry me back up thе stairs

And I wonder when I learnеd to read on my own
Grew heavy to hold, too big for her chair

[Chorus]
You gave me brown hair
You gave me brown eyes
You gave me the patience I need to be kind
You said not to cry, I promised to try
I'm waving goodbye
