one place
everything but the girl


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)

(repeat & fade)
