Home?

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
It's where you go when you're alone
It's 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
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
It's where you go when you're alone
It's 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 by Gabrielle Aplin

Hi! I'm really into this song for several months earlier. Accidentally in love with it right after the melodies jump through my ears. Just call it, love at the first sound?hearing? emm whatever.

Yap, as always, I love to find out some new songs in youtube just by typing a keyword which is really me..I mean really represent my current mood. When my feeling for someone is so strong, I used to type secret admirer or silent love song or every single words related to it, for instance. Ha ha ha. At least, i have a new song to play on path :p

Anw, I've started to analyse each verse of this so-much-touching lyrics by the talented, Gabrielle Aplin, but.......failed. I always got my self stuck on "What's exactly the message that she try to deliver in this song?". She talks about home many times, but.. home? who is her home? what does home mean for her? 

Everyone has their own meaning about home, so does Gabrielle. For her,

Home is where your heart is set in stone

It's where you go when you're alone

It's 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 

Then, for me?

Home is not just a place. It is a feeling
'It's not about the house I was in, but the people i was with'

Home is where my mom cooks my all-time favorite dishes
It's where my mom knows that I need her....And she's always there

Home is the smell of my dad's sweat after 6 hours outdoor tennis-play
It's where my dad knock the door and bring me sop saudara or kaledo for lunch
And I brigthly smile..feel so happy like a little.

Home is where I can wear the same super-oversized T-Shirt for 2-3 days
It's where I can stand not taking a shower for days. Lock my self in my room and do some idiot things.

Home is the sound of my mom's laugh, my rabbit's boundless joy, and a cup of hot milo on sunday morning, rain is falling haha.  *I miss cimot, anw :( Rest In Peace, deary.

Home is where my mom would wake the whole house with her music (morning ritual)
It's where I finally realize that JAZZ is my passion, indeed.

Home is everything about loneliness, but I enjoy it.
Have no sister/brother to play, to share, to cry to, to lean on, to play a joke on, etc. But lucky me, I always have foods,

Home is a place where I can put my feet up, watching TV series and enjoying my french fries.
Of course, with phone on my hand.

Home is a place where i can divide my eat portion into 3 rounds with feeling guilty...
Guilty pleasure :p

Home is place where i don't need to set my GPS to reach there, because i perfectly know the route just by intuition. No worries about getting lost.

And the best thing about home is..
a place where I was surrounded by the ones I love, my family. My little family.

Yaaap..I am just a homesick child who missing every pieces of memories bout home; childhood-girlhood and everything.
Home means so much to me, to everyone I bet. And those are a few meaning of home to me.


One thing you should know,

"In life you're gonna go far, and if you do it right you'll love where you are...

Just know, that wherever you go, you can always come back home" - Jason Mraz

Maybe, i should come back home.
