Vacancy |
Mrs. Smith and Mr. Jones have come to pass the night |
They pulled off of the highway when they saw my light |
It’s a vacancy I offer them, what they offer me |
Is fullness for a lifetime that’s bare as can be |
There’s a vacancy, won’t you come to me |
And fill my empty spaces |
I’m a motel man in a promised land |
That’s filled with empty faces |
So won’t you bring your sorrows bring your dreams |
It’s a place for you to be |
There’s no more tomorrow or that’s how it seems |
Won’t you come to me? |
I’ve got a vacancy |
Another name, another key, another pass to glory |
Another night, another sight, another bedtime story |
Another stage, another chance, for gentleness or violence |
Another birth, another dance, another death in silence |
There’s a vacancy, won’t you come to me |
And fill my empty spaces |
I’m a motel man in a promised land |
That’s filled with empty faces |
So won’t you bring your sorrows bring your dreams |
It’s a place for you to be |
There’s no more tomorrow or that’s how it seems |
Won’t you come to me? |
I’ve got a vacancy |
Mr. John is coming on with his liason |
Mr. Soft is comin' off and soon he’ll be gone |
Mrs. Hart has come apart now that she’s alone |
Mr. Jive has come alive but nobody’s home |
Mornings come checkout time, with my pail and broom |
I find what they’ve left behind in every tell-tale room |
The sheets show their struggles, the glasses their fears |
The ashtrays the hours passed, the towels their tears |
There’s a vacancy, won’t you come to me |
And fill my empty spaces |
I’m a motel man in a promised land |
That’s filled with empty faces |
So won’t you bring your sorrows bring your dreams |
It’s a place for you to be |
There’s no more tomorrow or that’s how it seems |
Won’t you come to me? |
I’ve got a vacancy |
