[ Featuring Gladys Knight, the Pips ]
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
All of you opened up to let me see
In your heart there was room enough for me, woo yeah
You're the landlord and the keeper of our love
You're the landlord and the keeper of our love
Well, well, well, well
I had no place to go, left to wander aimlessly
Often I was asked to spend the night
Ooh, but my heart wouldn't let me, it didn't feel right
I don't know how or where you found the key
Ooh, 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 found the treasure and all my security
(Everybody on the block knows) Everybody on the block knows
That I'm proud he found the key
Ooh, you're the landlord, ooh and the keeper of our love
I know it, you know it, everybody knows it
You're the landlord and the keeper (every little bit of) of our love
You got that key to unlock that door in me
You're the landlord and the keeper of our love
Our love, our love, sweet, sweet love
You're the landlord and the keeper (you're landlord)
You're the landlord and the keeper (and the keeper)
You're the landlord and the keeper (of our love)
You're the landlord and the keeper
You're the landlord and the keeper (you're landlord)
You're the landlord and the keeper (and the keeper)
You're the landlord and the keeper (of our love)
You're the landlord and the keeper
You're the landlord and the keeper (you're landlord)
You're the landlord and the keeper (and the keeper)
You're the landlord and the keeper (of our love)
You're the landlord and the keeper
You're the landlord and the keeper (you're landlord)
You're the landlord and the keeper (and the keeper)
You're the landlord and the keeper (of our love)
You're the landlord and the keeper
You're the landlord and the keeper (you're landlord)
You're the landlord and the keeper (and the keeper)
You're the landlord and the keeper (of our love)
