Home Is Where The Heart Is Lyrics - Lifelines Live - Peter, Paul & Mary

On the corner there's this nice man 

His name is mark, he's always smiling 

He's got this mom who comes on wednesdays 

In the evening with soup so steaming 

He shares his house with his friend martin 

They're not brothers, they're not cousins 

My little girl wonders all about these men 

I take hold of her hand, and I begin 

Chorus: 

Home is where the heart is 

No matter how the heart lives 

Inside your heart where love is 

That's where you've got to make yourself 

At home 

Across the yard live deb and tricia 

With their tools and ladders 

And their room addition 

My kid yells over, "are ya having a baby? " 

They wink and smile, they say, "someday maybe." 

But through their doors go kids and mommies 

Funny how you don't see the daddies go in 

My little girl wonders 

'bout this house with no men, 

I take hold of her hand 

And I begin 

Chorus 

'round the corner, here comes martin 

He's alone now, he tries smiling 

He roams around his well stocked kitchen 

He knows that fate will soon be coming 

My little girl wonders where he will live 

I take hold of her hand and I begin 

Chorus 

Martin sits and waits with his windows open 

His house is empty, his heart is broken 

We bring him toys and watercolors 

He loves to hear my little baby's stories 

She's the gift I share 

She's his companion 

She's the string on the kite 

She guides him into the wind 

My little girl wonders who will care for him 

We take hold of his hand and we begin
