He may hang his hat behind our bedroom door
And we'd walk and talk and touch tenderly
The love that built these walls is gone
If he could only find that feeling once again
'Cause in each other's arms we were home sweet home
We built a love so strong it couldn't break
Home ain't where his heart is anymore
And he may still come home
Home ain't where his heart is anymore
Then he'd lay me down and make love to me
He don't lay his head down to love me like before
Then the hardest hearts of steel can turn to rust
But he don't lay his head down to love me like before
But he don't feel the same
Home ain't where his heart is anymore
And we'd kiss all the way from Arkansas to Rome
Since our lives became
Years of bills, babies and chains
If we could only change the way the story ends
But he don't lay his head down to love me like before, oh
There was not a road we were afraid to take
Home ain't where his heart is anymore
He may hang his hat behind our bedroom door
But I live here alone
If foundations made of stone can turn to dust
