Alana Springsteen - just a house lyrics

[Alana Springsteen - just a house lyrics]

I used to just walk in, and
Now I gotta knock on the door
I'm parking in the street now, and
My muddy tennis shoes ain't on the porch

And now my bedroom's just my brother's mess
I feel like I'm a hotel guest
That's always just the way it goes, I guess

But I can't say I don't miss it
When I go back and visit
It's 'bout the same, but something's changed
Since I've been on my own

Yeah, it might be where I started, but
Now it's only where half my heart is
'Cause I grew up and I moved out
And just like that now home is just a house

I know I used to live there, 'cause
I'm in every picture on the wall
Back when I had brown hair
And I picked up a guitar to get away from it all

And now it's quiet in my living room
And I love my place, I really do

But I can't say I don't miss it
When I go back and visit
It's 'bout the same, but something's changed
Since I've been on my own

Yeah, it might be where I started, but
Now it's only where half my heart is
'Cause I grew up and I moved out
And just like that now home is just a house
It's just a house

I know that's how it's supposed to be
Put 20 down for a front door key
And a welcome mat, greener grass
And there ain't no way I'd trade all that

'Cause I finally did it
It hits a whole lot different
Bought this couch, it's freedom how I call it all my own
Yeah, this brand new life I started
That's where my heart is
I moved out, went 10 miles south
This place is so much more than just the house
It ain't just a house
