I?m in the kitchen while you smoke outside
You?re careful not to let the smoke inside
I always tell you it?s poison
But I know it helps you take the edge off the day
We get a drink before it?s closing time
The one on high street with the blinking sign
All of these memories feel poignant
I won?t be there to see the snow melt away
Oh, yeah, I?ve been gone on business
I?ve gotta make some money
I really feel the distance
And I quite miss home
And I miss you telling me
To leave my shoes at the door
?Cos you just swept the floor and the dirt drives you crazy
Yeah, I quite miss home
?Cos it feels like poetry
When the rain falls down on the window
While you?re in my arms and we?re watching the TV
Yeah, I quite miss home
Yeah, I quite miss home
I smell you cooking from the living room
And then I tell you that I love your food
I know it doesn?t come easy
But you know it reminds me where I?m from
Oh, I?m in another city
I got nobody with me
And it just really hit me
That I quite miss home
And I miss you telling me
To leave my shoes at the door
?Cos you just swept the floor and the dirt drives you crazy
Yeah I quite miss home
?Cos it feels like poetry
And the rain falls down on the window
While you?re in my arms and we?re watching the TV
Yeah, I quite miss home
Yeah, I quite miss home
And I quite miss home
Yeah I missed you telling me
To leave my shoes at the door
?Cos you just swept the floor and the dirt drives you crazy
Oh, I just miss home
?Cos it feels like poetry
As the rain falls down on the window
While you?re in my arms and we?re watching the TV
Oh, I miss home, yeah, I quite miss home
Oh, I miss home, yeah, I quite miss home
