A Place Called Home Lyrics
Well, it's not hard to see
Anyone who looks at me
Knows I am just a rolling stone
Never landing anyplace to call my own
To call my own
Well, it seems like so long ago
But it really ain't you know
I started out a crazy kid
Miracle I made it through the things I did
The things I did
Someday I'll go where there ain't no rain or snow
‘Til then, I travel alone
And I make my bed with the stars above my head
And dream of a place called home
I had a chance to settle down
Get a job and live in town
Work in some old factory
I never liked the foreman standing over me
Over me
Oh I’d rather walk a winding road
Rather know the things I know
See the world with my own eyes
No regrets, no looking back, no goodbyes
No goodbyes
Someday I'll go where there ain't no rain or snow
‘Til then, I travel alone
And I make my bed with the stars above my head
And I dream of a place called home
Anyone who looks at me
Knows I am just a rolling stone
Never landing anyplace to call my own
To call my own
But it really ain't you know
I started out a crazy kid
Miracle I made it through the things I did
The things I did
‘Til then, I travel alone
And I make my bed with the stars above my head
And dream of a place called home
Get a job and live in town
Work in some old factory
I never liked the foreman standing over me
Over me
Rather know the things I know
See the world with my own eyes
No regrets, no looking back, no goodbyes
No goodbyes
‘Til then, I travel alone
And I make my bed with the stars above my head
And I dream of a place called home

this song matches so perfectly when it played on an episode on angel.
Heard this song on Angel, too. 'Hole in the World', when Fred dies. It's so amazingly perfect for that moment in the episode. I cried. Twas great. And this song is beautiful. Never heard of Kim Richey before, but she's got a nice voice.
I knew when and why this song was played before I saw the Angel episode. I felling in love with this this song and then cried like a girl when I saw the episode.
I get a few different feelings from this song. One is trying to find your place in the world where you belong and know without a doubt that it is where you should be. Unfortunately, I think most of us can only wander and dream of such a place.
Second, I think it is less about finding a place in the world, and more about living it until the end. The chorus really gives off some feeling of a heaven or whatever you want it to be. Finally you have a place without rain or snow, with no pain or suffering. Until then we can only travel along, and dream of that place.
