“I like the way you smile
I could be your state and I could be your nation
It doesn’t get better than home, now does it?”

Context: Why don’t we just sit and stare and do nothing?
Nothing at all for a while
I like the way you smile
I could be your state and I could be your nation
It doesn’t get better than home, now does it?
