Lyrics

This Must Be The Place

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Home is where I want to be

Pick me up and turn me 'round

I feel numb, born with a weak heart

I guess I must be having fun

The less we say about it, the better

We'll make it up as we go along

Feet on the ground, head in the sky

It's ok, I know nothing's wrong, nothing

Hi-yeah, I got plenty of time

Hi-yeah, you got light in your eyes

And you're standing here beside me

I love the passing of time

Never for money, always for love

Cover up and say goodnight

Say goodnight

Home is where I want to be

But I guess I'm already there

I come home, she lifted up her wings

I guess that this must be the place

I can't tell one from the other

Did I find you or you find me?

There was a time before we were born

If someone asks, this where I'll be

Where I'll be

Hi-yeah, we drift in and out

Hi-yeah, sing into my mouth

Out of all tose kinds of people

You got a face with a view

I'm just an animal looking for a home

Share the same space for a minute or two

And you love me till my heart stops

Love me till I'm dead

Eyes that light up, eyes look through you

Cover up the blank spots

Hit me on the head, I go

Ooh
