California is a great big nation of one
They never knew what they wanted
Til it was already gone

What do they do with the light in the morning
When they wake up alone?
They just go home, they just go home

You're the nicest, nicest boy I've ever met
And then I think about you then I think about you again
And again

PRE-CHORUS
Why don't we just sit and stare and do nothing?
Nothing at all for a while, I like the way you smile

CHORUS
I could be your state and I could be your nation
It doesn't get better than home, now does it?
Doesn't get better than home, now does it?
Doesn't get better than home, now does it?
Doesn't get better than home, now does it?
It's a comfort to me

I could be your welcome, I could be your greeter
I could be sweet (and I could be sweeter)
I want to be where your heart is home
I want to be where your heart is home
I want to be where your heart is home
It's a comfort to me

I want to see you with the light in the morning
There's never been such a beautiful warning to me, to me

PRE-CHORUS
Why don't we just sit and stare and do nothing?
Nothing at all for a while, I like the way you smile

PRE-CHORUS
Why don't we just sit and stare and do nothing?
Nothing at all for a while, I like the way you smile

CHORUS
I could be your state and I could be your nation
It doesn't get better than home, now does it?
Doesn't get better than home, now does it?
Doesn't get better than home, now does it?
Doesn't get better than home, now does it?
It's a comfort to me

I could be your welcome, I could be your greeter
I could be sweet (and I could be sweeter)
I want to be where your heart is home
I want to be where your heart is home
I want to be where your heart is home
It's a comfort to me

I want to be where your heart is home ...
