To Have A Home lyrics - Darren Criss

[from "A Very Potter Sequel" soundtrack]

Home
I've heard the word before
It's never meant much more
Than just a thing I've never had

A place
They say, hey, know your place
But I've never had a place to even know
Or a face that I could go to
If I needed someone there...

I'm laughing
It's hard to hide a smile
My god, it's been a while
Since I have had a reason to

To think
It's been here all along
Somewhere to belong
And a reason
A something to believe in...

I've finally found it
A place where I'm wanted...
This must be how it feels
To have a home

I used to dream about it
But never schemed or counted
On fantasies or wishes
It breaks a man to see what he misses

And so many nights I'd pray
For a better life, and a better day
But I never thought that it'd come true
It's finally here and I don't know what to do...
And I'm trying not to cry

This must be how it feels
To have a home

I've finally made it
I've hoped and I've waited
And for the first time in my life
I don't feel so alone

My heart starts to heal
To know this is real
This is how it must feel
To have a home...
