Hotel

[Verse 1:]
5:04 no morning's broken
The minibar is always open
She lays her head and waits for dreams
These sheets are clean, these sheets are clean
The TV's flickering red and blue
A voice suggests what she could do
Against the signs of getting old
She grabs the remote control.

[Chorus:]
And she tries to tell the nights apart
By the state of the heart and the shape of the moon
A hotel room is a hotel room is a hotel room.

[Verse 2:]
362 do not disturb
If no one knows, no one gets hurt
He turns off his mobile phone
He's never been this far from home
A stranger's skin and unknown scent
He wonders where his conscience went
The stranger smiles and blows a kiss
Wake-up call, quarter to six.

[Chorus:]
And he tries to tell the nights apart
By the state of the heart and the shape of the moon
A hotel room is a hotel room is a hotel room
Yeah, they try to tell the nights apart
By the state of the heart and the shape of the moon
A hotel room is a hotel room is a hotel room.

[Bridge:]
Pale light in the corridors
Short stories on every floor
Checking in and checking out
Nothing to write home about
It's just a stop along the way
Just a temporary place
For nameless neighbors in the dark
Wall to wall but worlds apart.

[Outro:]
I got 101, my lucky number
Windows open, wind of summer
(A hotel room is a hotel room is a hotel room)
And I hang my dress and turn the lights out
It's probably too late to call now
(A hotel room is a hotel room is a hotel room)
