Hotel Song
Lyricist:Josh Ritter
Sunday night, it's supper time, the hotel's full and all is fine You can see that 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 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
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 Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com 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
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 license plate You were drifting down the inner state It said you were from Delaware, I said oh, it must be gorgeous there
