I was cruisin' in the night streets I was looking for my hotel I was lost in some strange city And I couldn't find my hotel-room I was desperate in the midnight hour I needed sleep, a sink and shower But when one room's like the next It's hard to tell
At last I picked a spot Where I thought I had been before With the elevator broken I dragged myself up fourteen floors And at the top of this old building I knew no numbers but I knew a feeling And my key slid effortlessly Into the door
When I crossed into that space I was met with a familiar smell But it was wrong and out of place There was a woman in my hotel-room She said, you might have known me all my life But who was I before tonight? kiss me now, I promise I won't tell
Love, it will haunt you Whether or not you want it to But for me, my only company Are these ghosts that barely come to me
