Khushbu Kedia - Missing Home

Having to stay away from home, how do u think I feel?
Some say its really hectic, some say its no big deal
Saying is one thing and living is another
When every small thing abt home comes to bother

Miss mom n miss my dad
Miss them whn things are good, or when they go real bad
Miss them when m happy or when am drowned in tears
Miss them through my phases of overcoming fears

Miss my brother who taught me what to do
Anything big or small, he got me through
Never gave a second thought on how things were to be done
All he could care about was how i could have more fun

A very small family, all staying apart
Parents would just want us to come out smart
But success tastes like nothin when they aren around
Only empty happiness all around is found

I wanna get back, get back to them and say
I love you mom and in ur arms i wanna stay
What will i do with the sucess without havin the family to cherish it
I miss having you around and yes I really miss it

They call it being practical but i call it unfair
Enough of lying on bed with the same white ceiling to stare
I want my dad's lap and my brothers teasing to bother me
I wanna get back to being a bird filled with life and is free
A family is what matters the most to me
And that is exactly how i want it to be :)
