Full House
Jesse Frederick Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The milkman, the paperboy, evening TV.
Everywhere you look , everywhere you go (there's a heart).
There's a heart
A hand to hold onto.
Everywhere you look , everywhere you go.
Of somebody who needs you.
Eveywhere you look,
When you're lost out there and you're all alone,
A light is waiting to carry you home,
Everywhere you look.
Everywhere you look.
The lyrics to Jesse Frederick's "Full House" are a nostalgic reflection on the simpler, more predictable times of the past. The first line, "What ever happened to predictability?" alludes to how life can sometimes feel very chaotic and unpredictable. The following lines, "The milkman, the paperboy, evening TV" specifically reference the routines and familiar sights of daily life from a bygone era. The chorus then serves as a reassuring reminder that no matter where you are, there is always someone or something to find comfort and support in. "Everywhere you look, there's a heart. A hand to hold onto... A face of somebody who needs you." These lines suggest that even in the midst of difficulties or loneliness, there are always people who care about you and are willing to help.

What ever happened to predictibility?
Why is the world so unpredictable now? Where have the olden ways gone?
The milkman, the paperboy, evening TV.
Gone are the days when things were simple, and life was easy, and we used to wait for the milkman, the paperboy and the evening TV.
Everywhere you look , everywhere you go (there's a heart).
Every place you see, every person you meet, you will find someone with a heart that cares.
There's a heart,A hand to hold onto.
There will always be someone who loves you and is ready to lend their helping hand when you need it the most.
There's a face, Of somebody who needs you.
In every face you see, there is someone who is longing for your attention and affection, someone who needs you in their life.
When you're lost out there, and you're all alone,
When life throws you a curveball and you feel all by yourself and lost.
A light is waiting to carry you home,
There is always a way out, and the light of hope and love will guide you back home, to a place where you feel loved and appreciated.
Everywhere you look. Everywhere you look.
No matter where you look or where you go, the power of love is always present and ready to guide you through life's journey.
