Feels Like Home.

Feels Like Home.

Vocals: 13 Grammy Awards American blues singer, guitarist, and songwriter Bonnie Lynn Raitt.
Lyrics: American singer-songwriter, arranger, composer, conductor and pianist, Randall Stuart Newman.

The song ‘Feels Like Home’ has featured in the American teen drama television series ‘Dawson’s Creek’ and films ‘How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days’, ‘My Sister’s Keeper’, and ‘Michael’.

If marriage is on your horizon this year, same song is definitely one for serious consideration, at some stage, during your ‘special day’ celebrations.

Feels Like Home.

Something in your eyes, makes me want to lose myself,
Makes me want to lose myself, in your arms.
There’s something in your voice, makes my heart beat fast,
Hope this feeling lasts, the rest of my life.
If you knew how lonely my life has been,
And how low I’ve felt so alone.
If you knew how I wanted someone to come along,
And change my life the way you’ve done.

Feels like home to me, feels like home to me,
Feels like I’m on my way back where I come from.
Feels like home to me, feels like home to me,
Feels like I’m on my way back where I belong.

A window breaks down a long dark street,
And a siren wails over my head.
But I’m all right, ’cause I have you here with me,
And I can almost see through the dark there’s light.
If you knew how much this moment means to me,
And how long I’ve waited for your touch.
If you knew how happy you are making me,
I’ve never thought I’d love anyone so much.

Feels like home to me, feels like home to me,
Feels like I’m on my way back where I come from.
Feels like home to me, feels like home to me,
Feels like I’m on my way back where I belong.
Feels like I’m on my way back where I belong.

This Old Guitar.

This Old Guitar.

Lyrics and Vocals: American singer and songwriter Mr Henry John Deutschendorf Jr. [known professionally as John Denver (1943 – 1997)].

This Old Guitar.

This old guitar taught me to sing a love song,
It showed me how to laugh and how to cry.
It introduced me to some friends of mine,
And brightened up some days,
And helped me make it thru some lonely nights. Oh
What a friend to have on a cold and lonely night.
This old guitar gave me my lovely lady,
It opened up her eyes and ears to me.
It brought us close together,
And I guess it broke her heart
But it opened up the space for us to be,
What a lovely place and a lovely space to be.
This old guitar gave me my life my living,
All the things you know I love to do.
To serenade the stars that shine,
From a sunny mountainside,
And most of all to sing my songs for you.
I love to sing my songs for you.
Yes I do, you know
,
I love to sing my songs for you
.
