A Face To Call Home Lyrics

I am an architect
Of days that haven't happened yet
I can't believe a month is all it's been
You know my paper heart
The one I fill with pencil marks
I think I might have gone and inked you in

Little by little, inch by inch
We built a yard
With a garden in the middle of it
It ain't much, but it's a start
You got me swaying right along
To the song in your heart
And a face to call home
A face to call home
You got a face to call home

It's so good you didn't see
The nervous wreck I used to be
I never thought a man could feel so small
You never look at me like I'm a liability
I bet you'd think I've never been at all

Little by little, inch by inch
We built a yard
With a garden in the middle of it
It ain't much, but it's a start
You got me swaying right along
To the song in your heart
And a face to call home
A face to call home
You got a face to call home

A face to call home
A face to call home
You got a face to call home

Maybe I can stay awhile
Maybe I can stay awhile
Maybe I can stay awhile
I'm talking like all of the time
Maybe I can stay awhile

Little by little, inch by inch
We built a yard
With a garden in the middle of it
It ain't much, but it's a start
You got me swaying right along
To the song in your heart
And a face to call home
A face to call home
You got a face to call home

What is the Meaning of A Face To Call Home?

Imagine finding someone who makes you feel truly at home, no matter where you go. John Mayer's heartfelt lyrics paint a picture of love and companionship, where small steps taken together build something beautiful. He portrays himself as an "architect of days that haven't happened yet," who, despite initial anxieties, finds deep emotional resonance in a relationship that feels like home. The song celebrates the gradual, meaningful creation of a life together, marked by shared dreams and mutual support. Through its metaphor of building a yard with a garden, it emphasizes how love grows organically, little by little, providing a sanctuary where hearts sway in harmony. This person becomes his anchor, his comfort, his "face to call home."
