There's a Million Reasons

There's a million reasons to go
But a million and one to stay
I don't know what the water is like deeper out
I'd rather live where I know how
This is where I've always been

I'm afraid to take that leap
Turn my life upside down just for bravado
In fact I'm terrified of the idea
If something new- the unknown
Where anything can happen

I want to explore the world, that's true
But I've been around, I've travelled by bus, train, plane and feet
And nothing can compare to the joy of finding myself right back where I began
Home is where the heart is
And my heart is here
