Verse 1
Home - is where I want to be
pick me up and turn me round
I feel numb, born with a weak heart
I guess I must be having fun
The less we say about it the better
Make it up as we go along
Feet on the ground, head in the sky
its ok i know nothings wrong
nothings...
Hi-yo, Ive got plenty of time
Hi-yo, Youve got light in your eyes
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/talking-heads/318666.html ]
And your standing here beside me
I love the passing of time
Never for money - always for love
Cover up and say goodnight
Say goodnight...

Verse 2
Home - is where I want to be
but I guess Im already there
I come home, she lifted up her wings
I guess that this must be the place
I cant tell one from another
Did i find you or you find me?
There was a time, before we were born
If someone asks this is where Ill be
Where Ill be...
Hi-yo, We drift in and out
Hi-yo, sing into my mouth
Out of all those kinds of people
Youve got a face with a view
Im just an animal, looking for a home
Share the same space for a minute or two
And you love me till my heart stops
Love me till Im dead
eyes that light up, eyes that look through
Cover up the blank spots, hit me on the head
Oooooooh-ooh-ooh-ooh.....
Theres another lead bit after this but I find its more fun to make
something up as opposed to copying the song exactly.
