Dolly Parton — I Wish I Felt This Way At Home lyrics

(Harlan Howard)

If I, could be with you forever
My restless heart
Would never want to roam

I've never been loved
The way you love me

I wish I felt this way at home
When you kiss me
It's words without speaking
And I don't believe that
God would call this wrong
Your arms are the refuge
I was seeking

I wish I felt this way at home

But I don't, and I won't
We did all that we could

He and I
We tried hard
But it's just no good
I may never be free
Cause I've no reason
And I don't expect you to wait that long
But I'll say one more time

As I'm leavin'

I wish I felt this way at home

Yes, I wish I felt this way at home
