Home Is Where the Heartbreak Is Gone West

[Verse 1]
We should've lit a book of matches, should've burned it down to dirt
Left forever in the ashes with those rings that didn't work
Now the teardrops in the carpet and fiction in the frames
Just sit there on that cul-de-sac like a monument to pain

[Chorus]
Home is where the heartbreak is
Where do you go when all that you know
Has slipped right through your fingertips?
Love found somewhere else to live
It took what we had, it ain't comin' back
Now home is where the heartbreak is

[Verse 2]
There's a roof over this bar stool, comfort in this glass
When they kick me out, it's gonna hurt to feel the past
And that empty bedroom where we made love is still haunted by all the ghosts of us
And I can't face it now, I just can't face it now

[Chorus]
Home is where the heartbreak is
Where do you go when all that you know
Has slipped right through your fingertips?
Love found somewhere else to live
It took what we had, it ain't comin' back
Now home is where the heartbreak is
