So I went back and listened to "Lonely Lifetime" again and realized that the chorus there has the same style that you mentioned. It`s homely, honest and undramatic:
...and sometimes, when I`m on my own
gigging far from home
I get so lonely.
I realize I need something else, other than this
It`s you I miss
Oh What a lonely lifetime !
As you say, it makes a very pleasant change from the over-serious declarations of some artists.

And when the verse is repeated with Richard Sinclair doing his bubbly thing .. Ahh, such beauty
