(Dan Messe/Gary Maurer)
|
|
Ten dollars for the room
|
Torn blankets smell like old perfume
|
Then love checks in, trips a wire,
|
Skips the bill, sets a fire
|
And leaves the wreck that's left behind
|
With one desire, one desire
|
|
Don't worry 'bout the key
|
Lock's busted, and the chain is free
|
Light comes up, the sun goes down
|
A rented room, a borrowed town
|
That burns the memories to the ground
|
With one more round, one more round
|
One more round
|
|
Ten miles 'til the dawn
|
A sign lights up and it pulls you on
|
So strip the bed, slash the tire
|
A broken home, a hotel fire
|
You ask yourself again, am I
|
Your one desire, one desire
|
