Homesick Lyrics

[Intro]
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah


[Verse 1]
I always knew that you existed, no one listened
How come when you drove by, you wouldn't stop to visit?
My mom and dad said they first met under the moonlight
I didn't buy their cover story, it didn't feel right
'Cause I belong in space, floatin' with debris
Somethin' 'bout this place never did feel right to me

[Chorus]
Countin' the stars, they all felt so far
But it's always felt like home to me
What took you so long?
They thought that I was wrong
But now, they'll all see
They're all gonna see
That's where I'm meant to be
Now, they're all gonna see
It's where I'm meant to be
[Verse 2]
And you're so lucky, lookin' down on everybody
Me, alone and fakin' at this afterparty
These ain't my people, ain't my crew, it ain't my planet
These humans speak my language, still don't understand it
I wish you took me with you when you left that day
And everything looks perfect when you're far away

[Chorus]
Countin' the stars, they all felt so far
But it's always felt like home to me
What took you so long?
They thought that I was wrong
But now, they'll all see
They're all gonna see
That's where I'm meant to be
Now, they're all gonna see
It's where I'm meant to be

[Chorus]
Countin' the stars, they all felt so far
But it's always felt like home to me
What took you so long?
They thought that I was wrong
But now, they'll all see
They're all gonna see
That's where I'm meant to be
Now, they're all gonna see
It's where I'm meant to be

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

“I have a song about how i’m an alien and i’m sad that my real parents didn’t abduct me”

She also said there’s a Lyric on the song that is about her mom and dad saying that they met for the first time under the moonlight and about how she (Madison) didn’t buy that cover story cause it didn’t feel right and after that she sang the lyric.

“I Belong In Space”

She also said she was going to call it “Phone Home” cause she thought it was cute but the real title was “Meant To Be”.
