On the corner I pass by dreaming At the end of every street There's a house I whisper gently It's where I'll rest my feet As I step in through the doorway I turn and hesitate Will he follow me in my boldest dreams Or is it already too late?
Should I stop by for just a little while Or hurry past with speed? Should I mention all my heartache Or turn the other cheek? Should I mention what I've been doing? Did you notice how I speak? Did I tell you what you did to me? Did I tell you I'm in deep?
He's seen me coming now He's seen me coming now
On the corner I pass by dreaming At the end of my old street There's the house I whisper gently And I call it Hotel Splendide Did you notice what I did to you? Did you notice where I've been? Did I tell you how I've changed my mind? Did you notice how I speak?
