Your lungs fill up with concrete
Her voice is all you can hear
Red lips and a screwdriver
Wrapped around some mink-clad queer

And you know that she's no diamond
In this d___ juke box hell
'Cause only fools gold fools
Fools in two-bit hotels
But she's cooler than all that
A real high-class cat
Queen of the last dance rodeo

But under the gas lamp the air is thick and velvety
Your bones filled with hunger, your heart fills with longing
You're no longer human, you're an insatiable hole
You wanna bury your face forever in the navel of her soul
'Cause you know

All you need is a heart to call home
All you need is a heart to call home
That's all

Light bulbs and nylons and plastic chandeliers
Objects are only objects, they can't feel when you're near
The tangerine lips and lily-white b______
These things are eternal inside them humanity rests
The skin is like a seashell
You listen to her soul like an old-time radio show

'Cause under the gas lamp the air is thick and velvety
Your bones filled with hunger, your hearts fills with longing
You're no longer human, you're an insatiable hole
You wanna bury your face forever in the navel of her soul
'Cause you know

All you need is a heart to call home
All you need is a heart to call home
That's all

Don't wander too far on one constant star
Darkness exists except where you are
My feet are filled with wandering
They follow your own
'Cause everywhere you are feels like home

So search all you miners, you hunters of dreams
Look in the alleyways for what you know is not what it seem
And feign all you maidens but don't resist too long
At least look behind you and see your own shadow is gone
Don't you know it's the last rodeo
You gotta find yourself a cowboy or someone to keep you
warm when it's cold

'Cause under the gas lamp the air is thick and velvety
Your bones filled with hunger, your hearts with longing
You're no longer human, you're an insatiable hole
You wanna bury your face forever in the navel of her soul
'Cause you know

All you need is a heart
All you need is a heart to call home
All you need is a heart to call home

All you need, it's all you need
'Cause all you need is a heart
That's all, that's all
