This device in my hand, well it does not understand
How I need to talk with you, how I need you now
Even the mobilest phone will leave you exactly alone
When the sea decides to commandeer the land
Oh, everyone needs a home, everybody needs a place to go;
A sympathetic ear when you're on hold, oh, oh
Every girl needs a roof and a bed and a bright, bright light
That she can turn off at night
And fall asleep with the love of her life
A catastrophic, lonely collapse;
A conspiracy of maps;
Sweet Louise, two days from side to side:
Daunting, dear, it's true
But this flood will not keep me from you
Pull my picture from your wallet now and sing!
Well, everyone needs a home, everybody needs a place to go;
An FEMA trailer does not ease the blow, oh, no
Every boy needs a roof and a bed and a bright, bright light
That he can turn off at night
And fall asleep with the love of his life
Everyone needs a home, everybody needs a place to go;
A sympathetic voice when you feel alone
All I need is a roof and a bed and a bright, bright light
That I can turn off at night
And fall asleep with the love of my life
I'll fall asleep with the love of my life
