|
When your headlights cut across my wall |
|
Yeah, I thought it might be you |
|
Looking for a place to fall |
|
Talking sweet, thinking small |
|
Seeking out convenient arms |
|
Yeah and resting for a while |
|
Someone to keep you safe and warm |
|
While you ride out your latest storm |
|
Oh my heart's not a hotel |
|
You can check in and out of |
|
It's not a temporary shelter |
|
It's a home for someone's love |
|
Don't just come here when you're lonely |
|
Knowing full an' well you won't stay' |
|
Cause I don't have the strength tonight |
|
To turn you away |
|
Oh don't let the dawn find me asleep |
|
On a pillow of regret |
|
Take all my dreams just leave the key |
|
And let me keep my dignity' |
|
Cause my heart's not a hotel |
|
You can check in and out of |
|
It's not a temporary shelter |
|
It's a home for someone's love |
|
Don't just come here when you're lonely |
|
Knowing full an' well you won't stay' |
|
Cause I don't have the strength tonight |
|
To turn you away |
|
No, don't come here when you're lonely |
|
Knowing full an' well you won't stay' |
|
Cause I don't have the strength tonight |
|
To turn you away |
|
I don't have the strength tonight |
|
To turn you away |
