Coming Home

Feels Like Home

by Chantal Kreviazuk

Somethin' in your eyes, makes me wanna lose myself

Makes me wanna lose myself, in your arms

There's somethin' 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 long I've been so alone

And if you knew how I wanted someone to come along

And change my life the way you've done

It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me

It feels like I'm all the way back where I come from

It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me

It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

A window breaks, down a long, dark street

And a siren wails in the night

But I'm alright, 'cause I have you here with me

And I can almost see, through the dark there is light

Well, if you knew how much this moment means to me

And how long I've waited for your touch

And if you knew how happy you are making me

I never thought that I'd love anyone so much

It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me

It feels like I'm all the way the back where I come from

It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me

It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

Three years ago today, I married my best friend. I remember looking at him standing there in front of me and in my head I was screaming, "Oh my god, I get to marry him. I get to spend my life with my best friend." I couldn't stop smiling. He couldn't stop smiling. After waiting my whole life for him, here he was standing in front of me, wanting to marry me.

We got married outside, on one of the hottest days of the summer, and it was perfect. Surrounded by the most important people in our lives, our children and grandchildren, family and a few close friends. It was simple yet unconventional...I wore black and he didn't wear a tux. My brother, married us. We planned our whole service and wrote our own vows. Our children took part in the ceremony. My other brother, who has been my best friend for many years, was my man of honor. His best friend was our best man. We spent more on the party afterwards then on the actual wedding. We had a blast. We had Celtic wedding bands hand made special for us. All of it was perfectly beautiful. It was the best. But being married is better.

This song is so fitting because the day I found him, is the day I started on my journey home. I knew. He knew. I think we both had been working our way towards each other for a long time, long before either of us had a clue that a love like this was possible...before we had even met. I knew this is where I belong. He is my home. Just being with him, feels like home, no matter where we are at.

This song is so fitting because it tells my story...it tells our story. He still makes my heart beat fast. He still makes me fall in love with him every day. He still makes me lose myself. He still makes me happy. He is still my home.This song is so fitting, we played it at our wedding and I play it, today, in honor of our anniversary.

Happy Anniversary my love...I love you even more today then I did then. I'm having the time of my life. I didn't know it could be like this. I'm so glad you picked me! I love you to the moon and back. XXXOOO



As if this day could get any better....my youngest son is flying in today and will be home for 10 days!!! My oldest daughter and 10 year old granddaughter are flying in today and will be home for 3 whole weeks!!! I can hardly wait! I cannot wait to lay my eye's on them...to hug them and bring them home.

PS I just spent the last 5 hours trying to post this picture slide show that was suppose to be in this post instead of the lyrics...ugh...very frustrating. Maybe I will get it figured out tomorrow?
