Everything But The Girl - One Place lyrics

One Place

A summer evening; I walk past the window,

Baby's crying; Someone's cooking dinner;

There's laughter on the TV

Someone's learning the violin.

How at home, it heals

At times like this, I feel that...

CHORUS:

I would like to live like anybody else

In one place

And I could be happy and fulfilled

In one place

So I get the map out

And draw a line of where we've been

It goes thru sea and sky

Twenty-five planes this year

And it's only July...

This is not some Bible, like "On The Road"

It's just a song about coming home

And whether...

CHORUS:

I would like to live like anybody else

In one place

And I could be happy and fulfilled

In one place

And you know that I have found

That I'm happiest weaving from town to town

And you know Bruce said

we should keep moving 'round

Maybe we all get too tied down, I don't know

Hell, I don't know

I'm happy to be home (Still alive)

Happy to be home...

In the end, if you take care

You can be happy or unhappy anywhere

CHORUS:

And I think we maybe all rely too much

On one place

I know I never would deny the need

For one place

So I get the map out (get the map out)

Yeah I get the map out (get the map out)

C'mon, get the map out (get the map out)

Get the map out (get the map out)
