    Story Behind the Song
    I had the chorus and bridge of this song floating around in my head for at least 5 years. I brought it to Ken and he came up with the verses. This was one of our first co-written songs.

    Lyrics
    Everybody needs a place to come home to.
    Everybody needs a warm hand to hold.
    Everybody needs a roof when it's rainin'
    Everybody needs a fire when it's cold.

    At the risk of my heart, I'm speakin' my mind.
    I don't know where to start, so I'm layin' it all on the line.

    Be my inspiration, be my goal
    Be the light at the end of the road.
    Be my comfort and catch me when I fall,
    Be the voice that answers my call.

    And I will be all of these things for you
    You and me - we've got some livin' to do.

    I've been taken for a ride down life's highway
    Been left standin' by that road in the rain.
    It's hard to keep on walkin' into the new day,
    While this heart of mine still carries the pain.

    But you gave me hope that love could live one more
    Stay with me now - can't you see that you've opened the door?

    Be my inspiration, be my goal
    Be the light at the end of the road.
    Be my comfort and catch me when I fall,
    Be the voice that answers my call.

    And I will be all of these things for you
    You and me - we've got some livin' to do.
