You're the landlord, and the keeper of our love You're the landlord, and the keeper of our love Here was a heart, torn apart desperately in need of fixing I never found a heart, big enough, let alone someone in whom I could trust Oh you, opened up to let me see, in your heart there was room enough for me woo You're the landlord, and the keeper of our love You're the landlord, and the keeper of our love I had no place to go, left to wander aimlessly Often I was asked, to spend the night Ohh, but my heart wouldn't let me, didn't feel right I don't know how or where you found the key But you unlocked every door inside of me You're the landlord, and the keeper of our love You're the landlord, and the keeper Who comes to see me when I just pick up the phone Who'll rush right over when I need to cut the heat on And when my tears are flowing down the drain I don't need no plumber cause he can unstop the pain He's my protection and all my security Everybody on the block knows That I'm private property You're the landlord, and the keeper of our love Our love, you know, everybody knows it You're the landlord, You're the landlord, And the keeper of our love And the keeper of our love You're the landlord, and the keeper of our love
