Finally Home

Just a note to say thanks to Daughtry for writing "Home." I lost my father (56) to cancer on Feb 6th, 2008. He had just been diagnosed in November of 2007 and I just never realized that I would lose him so quickly. As for anyone who loses a loved one, there are many regrets and wishes of more time, but I know that he would not have wanted to suffer. After I left his funeral (Indiana), I got in the car to return home. With tears running down my face and wishing that I could just have a sign that my Dad was okay, I turned on the radio to end the silence. The song "Home" came on the radio and I sat there really listening to the words. I felt somewhat of a comfort that he indeed wasn't in any pain and that he was where he was loved, he was finally home. Thank you, Chris, for writing such songs that emit such emotion and for giving me comfort in my time of need without even knowing it. Nicole
