This Must Be the Place
Gloria Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pick me up and turn me round
I feel numb - burn with a weak heart
(So 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
Hi yo i got plenty of time
Hi yoyou got light in your eyes
And you're standing here beside me
I love the passing of time
Never for money
Always for love
Cover up + say goodnight . . . say goodnight
Home - is where i want to be
But i guess i'm already there
I come home - -she lifted up her wings
Guess that this must be the place
I can't tell one from another
Did i find you, or you find me?
There was a time before we were born
If someone asks, this where i'll be . . . where i'll be
Hi yo we drift in and out
Hi yo sing into my mouth
Out of all tose kinds of people
You got a face with a view
I'm 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 i'm dead
Eyes that light up, eyes look through you
Cover up the blank spots
Hit me on the head ah ooh
"This Must Be the Place" is a song by American band Talking Heads, and it was released in 1983 as part of their album, Speaking in Tongues. The song is famous for its quirky lyrics that seem to be about a person's search for a home, both literally and figuratively. The song begins with the line "Home is where I want to be," which sets the tone for the rest of the song. The first verse talks about feeling numb and having a weak heart, but the singer accepts it and says that they must be having fun. The second verse talks about the passing of time and the value of love over money. The chorus talks about feeling like they're already home and the thought of finding someone special.
The lyrics are poetic and abstract, but they also have a clear emotional resonance. The song seems to be about the human desire for connection and belonging. The singer is searching for a place where they feel at ease and loved, but at the same time, they acknowledge that they're not quite sure where that place is or who they'll find there. The song's chorus is particularly memorable, with its repetition of "This Must Be the Place," suggesting a sense of comfort and contentment that the singer has finally found.
In conclusion, "This Must Be the Place" by Talking Heads is a song that captures the universal human desire for connection and a sense of belonging. The lyrics are poetic and ambiguous, yet they still manage to convey a strong emotional message. The song's use of repetition and the chorus' catchy melody make it a memorable and affecting piece of music that has stood the test of time.
