Hotel Song |
Sunday night, its supper time |
The hotel’s full and all is fine |
You can see that neon No Vacancy sign |
From the window of room 39 |
Monday morning at half past eight |
Everybody’s gone, they left no trace |
I sit alone as the day grows late |
Wait to see your friendly face |
Why you chose my hotel |
I’m not real qualified to tell |
It’s just your face I remember well |
When you asked if I had a room to sell |
Well, maybe you liked just what you saw |
The cable TV and the indoor spa |
Or maybe it was the low, low price |
Twenty-seven bucks a night |
They say the highway is for lovers, but he ain’t no friend of mine Because |
every time I find my heart, I lose it to that long yellow line |
You checked in, I checked you out |
You smiled from the corners of your mouth |
I turned on the no-vacancy sign |
As you checked in to room 39 |
I saw the light from your TV |
You were watching channel 23 |
The night was long, the dark was deep |
I kinda cried myself to sleep |
They say the highway is for lovers, but he ain’t no friend of mine Because |
every time I find my heart, I lose it to that long yellow line |
Morning broke itself at last |
You got your continental breakfast |
Dropped off the key and said goodbye |
I think I thought I heard you sigh |
I caught a glimpse of your licence plate |
You were drifting down the interstate |
It said you were from Delaware |
I said, «Oh, it must be gorgeous there» |
They say the highway is for lovers, but he ain’t no friend of mine Because |
every time I find my heart, I lose it to that long yellow line |
To that long yellow line |
