A heart needs a home

K. T. Oslin

Compositor: Richard Thompson

I know the way that I feel about you.
I'm never gonna run away.
I'm never gonna run away.
I never knew the way that I lived without you.
I'm never gonna run away.
I'm never gonna run away.
I came to you when no one could hear me.
I'm sick and weary of being alone.
Empty streets and hungry faces.
The world's no place when you're on your own.
A heart needs a home.

Some people say that I should forget you.
I'm never gonna be a fool.
I'm never gonna be a fool.
A better life, they say, if I'd never met you.
I'm never gonna be a fool.
I'm never gonna be a fool.

Tongues talk fire and eyes cry rivers.
Indian givers, hearts of stone.
Paper ships and painted faces.
The world's no place when you're on your own.
A heart needs a home

They I should forget you.
They say I should have met you.
I'm never gonna be a fool.
I'm never gonna be a fool.
Never gonna be a fool.
Never gonna be a fool.
