Lyrics of
Home Sweet Home

Home Sweet Home is a ballad by the glam metal band Mötley Crüe. It was originally released in 1985 on the Theatre of Pain album and again in 1991 for the Decade of Decadence compilation. The song talks about the desire to return home, reflecting feelings of missing and love for home. It became an anthem among fans and for the band, reflecting the hardships and life on the road.

You know I'm a dreamer but my heart's of gold
I had to run away high so I wouldn't come home low
Just when things went right doesn't mean they're always wrong
Just take this song and you'll never feel left all alone
Take me to your heart, feel me in your bones
Just one more night and I'm comin' off this long and winding road

I'm on my way, I'm on my way
Home sweet home, tonight, tonight
I'm on my way, I'm on my way
Home sweet home

You know that I've seen too many romantic dreams
Up in lights, fallin' off the silver screen
My heart's like an open book for the whole world to read
Sometimes nothing keeps me together at the seams

I'm on my way, I'm on my way
Home sweet home, tonight, tonight
I'm on my way, just set me free
Home sweet home

Home sweet home
Home sweet home
Home sweet home


I'm on my way, I'm on my way
Home sweet home, yeah
I'm on my way, just set me free
Home sweet home
