Janis Ian - Hotels and One-Night Stands lyrics

[Janis Ian - Hotels and One-Night Stands lyrics]

Hey, I been on the road too long
I don't know where I belong
Don't know how to say, "Goodbye, baby"
Say, I think of my yesterdays
Of loving that fades away you're loving me
And I don't love nobody now

Hotels and one-night stands are my speed
Give me a place I can leave
I wanna be someone I've never met before
Here's the key to the nineteenth floor
Somebody open the door
And give me a reason to
Keep coming back for more

Hey, I been on the magazines
I faced the American dream
Don't you think I know it?
Say, I think I been through the war
Well, I've been to England, of course
But I wanna be
Someplace I've never been before

Hotels and one-night stands are my speed
Give me a place I can leave
I wanna be someone I've never met before
Here's the key to the nineteenth floor
Somebody open the door
And give me a reason to
Keep coming back for more

I bet you can guess my name
And you need my flame feed me
Hey, I don't know who you are
But I'll bet you know I'm a star
Remember me?
I'm the one who never went too far

Hotels and one-night stands are my speed
Give me a place I can leave
I wanna be someone I've never met before
Here's the key to the nineteenth floor
Somebody open the door
And give me a reason to
Keep coming back for more

Here's the key to the nineteenth floor
Somebody open the door
And give me a reason of coming back for more
