Home Life Lyrics

Cover art for Home Life lyrics by John Mayer

Yes dashgoo12, the lyrics are "I used to be in my M to Z, but you'll never find me 'cause my name isn't there." These lyrics are, in my opinion, referring to the phonebooks. They come in two separate books - A-L and M-Z and now that John Mayer is famous, he can't be listed in the M-Z just in case some weird stalker fans.

I can tell you this MUCH, I will marry just once And if it doesn't work out, I'll give her half of my stuff It's fine with me We said eternity I will go to my grave, with the LOVE that I gave Not just a melody line on a radio wave It dissipates And soon evaporates Homelife doesn't change

That part is probably my favourite in the entire song. It's so sweet. I love it because it's taking a different stance on marriages these days. I mean, people are alwasy talking about how they might get divorce,d or divorce rates are high, but John Mayer's saying in this part "I'm not going to worry about divorce. I'll marry and if it doesn't work out, then that's what's meant to be, I've had my chance." It makes, I think a much more optimistic picture of getting married. Well, in my screwed up head it does, at least...lol
