Don't you agree when they all say

Home is where the heart is

But do you see

With every step that you take

You get further away

From where the heart is

It's so easy to be blinded

And caught up

Up in the clouds where everything's in a haze

Causing you to forget about the days

Of the common

Simple

Beautiful ways

I remember all the times that I had spent with my friends

Taking bart to san francisco just for 350cents

Talking

Laughing

Joking

Didn't quite know what was to come

Years of memories

Irreplaceable fun

I remember telling mom that I'd make her proud one day

She would smile and knew exactly all the right things to say

Man

I miss her and can't wait 'til I get back to the bay

Back to the common

Simple

Beautiful ways

Isn't it nice

To simply know

There's somewhere you can go back to

So it's a big sacrifice

Everytime that you decide

You can't even if you want to

It's so easy to be blinded

And caught up

Up in the clouds where everything's in a haze

Causing you to forget about the days

Of the common

Simple

Beautiful ways

I remember all the times that I had spent with my friends

Taking bart to san francisco just for 350cents

Talking

Laughing

Joking

Didn't quite know what was to come

Years of memories

Irreplaceable fun

I remember telling mom that I'd make her proud one day

She would smile and knew exactly all the right things to say

Man

I miss her and can't wait 'til I get back to the bay

Back to the common

Simple

Beautiful ways
