Flagship |
There’s a few too many years on this hotel |
She used to be a beauty you can tell |
The lights down in the lobby they don’t shine |
They just flicker while the elevator whines |
And the couple in the corner of the bar |
Have traveled light and clearly traveled far |
She’s got nothing left to learn about his heart |
They’re sitting there a thousand miles apart |
Baby let’s not ever get that way |
I’ll say whatever words I need to say |
I’ll throw rocks at your window from the street |
And we’ll call ourselves the flagship of the fleet |
There’s a lady shining shoes up by the door |
And cowboy boots for seven dollars more |
And I remember how you loved to see them shine |
So I run upstairs and get a pair of mine |
And there’s a painting on the wall beside the bed |
The watercolor sky at Hilton Head |
Then I see you in that summer when we met |
And that boy you left in tears in his Corvette |
Baby let’s not ever get that way |
I’ll drive you to the ocean every day |
We’ll stay up in the presidential suite |
And call ourselves the flagship of the fleet |
Oh, oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh, oh |
You gotta try to keep yourself naive |
In spite of all the evidence believed |
And volunteer to lose touch with the world |
And focus on one solitary girl |
Baby let’s not live to see it fade |
I’ll cancel all the plans I’ve ever made |
I’ll drive and you can ride in the back seat |
We’ll call ourselves the flagship of the fleet |
Oh, oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh, oh |
Oh, oh, oh, oh |
