Landlady Lyrics - U2

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 

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

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

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 

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 

Photos 

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
