Verse 1:

                               
 Just like a buzzin' fly, I come into your life,
                              
 Now I float a-way, like honey in the sun.
                                      
 Was it right or wrong? I couldn't sing that song,
     
 Any -way.

                    
 Oh, but darlin', now I re-member,
                  
 How the sun shown down.
                          
 And how it warmed your, prayin' smile,
                       
 When all the love was there.

                                        
 You're the one I talk about, you're the one I think about;
                                    
 And sometimes honey, in the mornin; Lord, I miss you so.

Chorus 1:

                              
      That's how I know I, found a home.
                              
      That's how I know I, found a home.

Verse 2:

             
 Oh, hear the mountains singing;
                                           
 Lord, I can hear them ringing; dar-lin', out your name.
                                
 And tell me if you know, just how the river flows,
         
       Down to the sea.
              
Now I wanna know...
                    
 Everything a-bout you.
               
 I wanna know...
                     
 Everything a-bout you.

                             
 What makes ya smile? What makes ya wild?
                      
 What makes ya love me this way?
                             
Darlin', I wanna know, darlin', I wanna know.

                                        
 You're the one I talk about, you're the one I think about;
                                    
 And sometimes honey, in the mornin; Lord, I miss you so.

Chorus 2:

                              
      That's how I know I, found a home.
                              
      That's how I know I, found a home.

Verse 3:

                        
 A-walkin' hand in hand, all a-long the sand,
                    
 A seabird knew your name.
             
 He knew your love was growin',
                                          
 Lord, I think it knows it's flowin', through you and me.

                 
 Ah, tell me darlin';
                     
 When I should leave you.
                    
 Ah, tell me darlin';
                           
 Well, I don't want to grieve you.

Verse 4:

                               
 Just like a buzzin' fly, I come into your life,
                              
 Now I float a-way, like honey in the sun.
                                      
 Was it right or wrong? I couldn't sing that song,
     
 Any -way.

                    
 Oh, but darlin', now I re-member,
                  
 How the sun shown down.
                          
 And how it warmed your, prayin' smile,
                       
 When all the love was there.

                                        
 You're the one I talk about, you're the one I think about;
                                    
 And sometimes honey, in the mornin; Lord, I miss you so.
                  
 I miss you so, I miss you so.
                 
 Mama, I miss you so...
         ,   
 I miss you so...
          ,   
 I miss you so...
