One Place Lyrics


Summer evening, I walk past the windows
Baby crying, someone's cooking dinner
There's laughter on the TV, someone's learning the violinHow that home appeals
At times like this, I feelI would like to live like anybody else
In one place
I could be happy and fulfilled
In one placeSo I get the map out
(Get the map out)
I draw a line of where we've been(Goes through sea and sky)
It goes through sea and sky
Twenty-five planes this year
And it's only JulyThis is not some Bible, like "On the Road"
It's just a song about coming home
And whetherI could live like anybody else
In one place
If I could be happy and fulfilled
In one placeYou know that I have found
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
Yeah, I don't know
Happy to be home
(Still I'm)
Happy to be home
(Alright)In the end, if you take care
You can be happy or unhappy anywhereI think we maybe all rely too much
On one place
Though I never would deny the need
For one placeI think, we maybe all rely too much, baby
On one place
I know I never would deny the need
For one placeFor one place
(For one place, baby)
One place
(One place, baby)
Oh yeahIt goes through sea and sky
(It goes through sea and sky)
One place
One place
(Goes through sea and sky)I'm happy to be home
(Still I'm happy to be home)
Happy to be home
(Oh, still I'm happy to be home)Goes through sea and sky
(Sea and sky)
(It goes through sea and sky)Get the map out
(Get the map out)
Won't you, baby?
(Get the map out)
Oh yeah
(Get the map out)Get the map out, oh yeah, baby
(Twenty-five planes this year)
Get the map out, it's alright
(After all, twenty-five planes this year)
C'monGet the map out
(Oh yeah)
Get the map out
(Oh yeah)
C'mon, get the map out
I said, get the map out
