[Lori McKenna - Numbered Doors lyrics]
She wore a borrowed dress nobody wanted back
She looked pretty as a
Picture in a magazine ad
Her daddy walked her down the isle
And then that was that no going back now
They said they'd keep on driving
Till they smelled the ocean
His arm so proud around her, the windows open
All she wanted was to keep on going
Just keep on going
Numbered doors, cheap champagne
Run out of time before they kill the pain
Maybe you'll find what you're searching for
Somewhere tonight behind numbered doors
She took the only waitress job
That she could find well, a town like this
Don't have a five-and-dime
The summer's too hot the winter's too cold
You can buy your Jesus or sell your soul
Numbered doors, misspelled names
It won't hurt no more so let it hit the vein
You can't give away what ain't really yours
But how she tries behind numbered doors
They didn't find her there
Until the next afternoon
Housekeeping came in to clean the room
Seemed like it happened in
A strangely peaceful way
Sometimes there ain't no reason
Why something breaks
She wore a borrowed dress nobody wanted back
Her daddy walked her down the
Aisle and that was that
She looked pretty as a
Picture in a magazine ad
Her daddy walked her down the isle
And then that was that no going back now
They said they'd keep on driving
Till they smelled the ocean
His arm so proud around her, the windows open
All she wanted was to keep on going
Just keep on going
Numbered doors, cheap champagne
Run out of time before they kill the pain
Maybe you'll find what you're searching for
Somewhere tonight behind numbered doors
She took the only waitress job
That she could find well, a town like this
Don't have a five-and-dime
The summer's too hot the winter's too cold
You can buy your Jesus or sell your soul
Numbered doors, misspelled names
It won't hurt no more so let it hit the vein
You can't give away what ain't really yours
But how she tries behind numbered doors
They didn't find her there
Until the next afternoon
Housekeeping came in to clean the room
Seemed like it happened in
A strangely peaceful way
Sometimes there ain't no reason
Why something breaks
She wore a borrowed dress nobody wanted back
Her daddy walked her down the
Aisle and that was that
