Weight Of The World Lyrics - My California - Beth Hart

Daddy is blowing leaves around the lawn 

He's laughing and joking, and humming funny songs 

He's saying "you gotta stand for something child" 

His heart is wide open when he looks me in the eyes 

He says: " When the weight of the world 

is on your shoulders, the rope is getting thin 

- run for the hills, lay down in the water" 

but I just wanna come home. 

Home, home, home. 

Where I started from. 

Home, home, home 

Before the weight of the world 

Turns my heart to stone

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Mama is holding tomatoes in the yard 

And her hair is all golden, her soul's a superstar 

She's dancing to Billie's, "You gotta find your way" 

She keeps saying don't worry, I'll love you anyway. 

And she says: "If you ever feel 

like you don't matter, your best ain't good enough. 

Run for the hills, lay down in the water 

But I just wanna come home 

Home, home, home. 

Where I started from. 

Home, home, home 

Before the weight of the world 

Turns my heart to stone 

I was so lucky, as anyone could ever be. 

And my love is long, and deeper than the sea. 

No I never said it, and I hope you will forgive. 

'Cause I thank you both for showing me how to live. 

If the weight of the world should leave you tired 

abandoned and stoned. I will be there 

I am your daughter - I'm coming home 

Home, home, home. 

I'm coming home 

Home, home, home 

Yeah, I'm coming home 

Before the weight of the world 

Turns my heart to stone
