This song hits close to home. I imagine the singer is my father in his old age, reflecting on the long life he's had. Dan's voice conveys a pained reality of the latter years of someone's life. He is sorrowful, but bittersweet in the good memories, and the knowledge that home is where the heart is. In the end, he reminds us that the love and comfort of home matter more than our wishes or wants.
