| I’m sitting in this hotel room tonight
|
| Somewhere above my head, the Hollywood sign burning bright
|
| Through the walls I hear lovers fight
|
| The TV’s on, I keep it playing for the light
|
| There’s ringing in my ears all the time
|
| Beneath that noise a silence so divine
|
| Twenty dollars for a drink from the minibar
|
| Stare at the sky, but I can’t see any stars
|
| Awake, in this borrowed room
|
| Thoughts spinning in the cosmos like a moon
|
| Awake, my dreams in a line
|
| Waiting for my mind to go black
|
| I listen to the ghosts in the corridors
|
| All the men and women that were here before
|
| Just a stranger in this strange town
|
| I’ll be forgotten tomorrow when they turn the bed down
|
| Awake, in this borrowed room
|
| Thoughts spinning in the cosmos like a moon
|
| Awake, my dreams in a line
|
| Waiting for my mind to go black
|
| All the lonely hearts, that travelled so far
|
| To drink in bars where no one knows your name
|
| To the night we belong, our stories our songs
|
| Spirits dance in the corner of our eyes
|
| Raise your glass with trembling hands
|
| Curse the devil as you stand
|
| Hear him laugh, drink deep anyway
|
| Hear him laugh, drink deep anyway
|
| Hear him laugh, drink deep anyway |
