A Heart Needs a Home [previously unreleased] Songtext
von Richard & Linda 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 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
