"You're My Home" was originally on Billy Joel's 1973 Piano Man album. It also appears on the Songs in the Attic (1981), The Essential Billy Joel (2001) and 12 Gardens Live (2006). The song appears as a B-side on "Piano Man" and "All My Life" singles

The song was written for his wife and business manager Elizabeth Weber as an anniversary present because he could not afford anything while in California. They went to California hoping to get out from Artie Ripp's contact and the problems with his first solo album Cold Spring Harbor (1971). ^[1]
