Nanci Griffith - Late Night Grande Hotel lyrics

I'm working on a morning flight
To anywhere but here
I'm watching this evening fire
Burn away my tears
All my life I've left my troubles by the door
'Cos leaving is all I've ever known before

It's not the way you hold me
When the sun goes down
It's not the way you call my name
That left me stranded on the ground
It's not the way you'll say you'll hear
My heart when the music ends
No i am just learning how to fly away again

It's not the way you say you'll hear
My heart when the music ends
I am just learning how to fly away again

And maybe you were thinking that you
Thought you knew me well
But no-one ever knows the
Heart of anyone else
I feel like Garbo in this
Late Night Grande Hotel
'Cos living alone is all I've ever done well

It's not the way you hold me
When the sun goes down
It's not the way you call my name
That left me stranded on the ground
It's not the way you'll say you'll hear
My heart when the music ends
No i am just learning how to fly away again

It's not the way you hold me
When the sun goes down
It's not the way you call my name
That left me stranded on the ground
It's not the way you'll say you'll hear
My heart when the music ends
No i am just learning how to fly away again

It's not the way you'll say you'll hear
My heart when the music ends
No i am just learning how to fly away again
