You're My Home
Piano Man (1973)
 >>

Well I never had a place that I could call my very own
But that's all right my love 'cause you're my home.

    Billy again delves into country-tinged pop with the ballad "You're My Home."  Musically, it's a pleasant enough tune, and thematically it's a nice sentiment, that your lover is your "home."  But there are some awkward lyrics here like "use my body for your bed," "when I feel my withered roots begin to grow" and the cringe-inducing "instant pleasure dome."   Still it's a lovely song, sounding a bit like the late Jim Croce (see "I Got A Name" or "Time In A Bottle") and Gordon Lightfoot (see "The Last Time I Saw Her Face").

     I'm surprised no country-pop artist ever covered this song like Dolly Parton covered "Travelin' Prayer" and Garth Brooks covered "Shameless" from 1989's Storm Front.  However, 1970s pop icon Helen Reddy did record and perform the song on The Midnight Special in which Billy Joel himself appeared and performed "Travelin' Prayer" and "The Ballad of Billy the Kid."  Billy or his people later asked Ms. Reddy to stop performing the song as they did not like her version.  At that time, Reddy was a big star, so it took some chutzpah to tell her to not record or perform it.   Billy tells the story in the video below (right, bottom) in 2015 in his usual humorous and sarcastic fashion.  He also talks about being inspired by Gordon Lightfoot.

      Billy recorded a live version (below, right) for 1981's Songs In The Attic and a live version also appears on the 12 Gardens bonus CD.  In the liner notes for Songs In The Attic, Billy explains that he wrote the song as a Valentine's Day gift for his then wife Elizabeth. ​

Words and Music by Billy Joel

When you look into my eyes
And you see the crazy gypsy in my soul
It always comes as a surprise
When I feel my withered roots begin to grow
Well I never had a place
That I could call my very own
But that's all right my love 'cause you're my home

When you touch my weary head

And you tell me everything will be all right
You say, "Use my body for your bed
And my love will keep you warm throughout the night"
Well I'll never be a stranger
And I'll never be alone
Whenever we're together, that's my home

Home can be the Pennsylvania Turnpike

Indiana's early morning dew
High up in the hills of California
Home is just another word for you

Well I never had a place that I could call my very own

But that's alright my love 'cause you're my home

If I travel all my life

And I never get to stop and settle down
Long as I have you by my side
There's a roof above and good walls all around
You're my castle, you're my cabin, and my instant pleasure dome
I need you in my house 'cause you're my home
You're my home
You're my home

​     This page's background photo and the homemade video below features photos from the 1973 movie Breezy (YouTube) starring Kay Lenz and William Holden.  The movie always reminded me of the song and vice-versa.   Lenz plays the quintessential 1970's California hippie lady in the movie, the kind of person that inspired Elton John's "Tiny Dancer" (YouTube) ("blue jean baby, LA lady").  Clint Eastwood directed the movie and has a brief cameo appearance.
