Roam, the phone is where I live 'til I get home And when the doorbell rings you tell me that I have a key I ask you, how you know it's me The road, no road without a turn and if there was The road would be too long What keeps us standing in this view Is the view that we can be brand new The landlady takes me up in the air I go, I go where I would not dare The landlady shows me the stars up there I'm weightless, weightless when she is there And I'll never know, never know what starving poets meant 'Cause when I was broke, it was you that always paid the rent Space, her place is where I found my parking space And when I'm losing ground, you know she gives it back to me She whispers "don't do, just be" The landlady takes me up in the air I go, I go where I would not dare The landlady shows me the stars up there I'm weightless, weightless when she is there And I'll never know, never know what starving poets meant 'Cause when I was broke, it was you that always paid the rent Every wave that broke me Every song that wrote me Every dawn that woke me Was to get me home to you, see Every soul that left me Every heart that kept me The strangers that protected me To bring me back to you Every magic potion Every false emotion How unswerving our devotion To the lies we know are almost true Every sweet confusion Every grand illusion I will win and call it losing If the prize is not for you
