I Am On An Airplane...

(I wrote this on the plane from New York to L.A. :) it's a combination of missing L.A. and my hometown in northern California.)

I WANT TO GO HOME;
Where the sun sets low
On Ocean's bend
Where the seagulls perch
On glassy shores
Where sun smiles down
On peaceful people
With my hands held high
To Heaven's gate
I praise the Name
I hear so loud
In my hometown
With people I know-
People who smile,
People who glow
Christmas is there,
Embedded in memories,
My family sings
A million melodies
HOME:
Where my heart lies,
Sleeping,
And never leaves.
