A Heart Needs A Home - 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 when 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
