The Theme of Homelessness

In the 80s a singer named Basia was very popular. Today her career still shines brightly with jazz trio with Matt Bianco. One of my favourite Basia classics is one called Yearning. Yearning is such a romantic word. Intense desire.
The lyrics refer to those who have a case of longing and travel great distances however remain 'homeless in their hearts'. It makes me wonder as the world gets smaller, relationships get closer, yet disconnect is still ever present and we arrive at it much faster that in previous decades. Are we networking ourselves to into emotional homelessness?
