American Hotel #2

i'm waking up alone again
i knew that you'd be gone
i'm sleeping in my clothes again
'cause no one tells me wrong
when will you be back, my love?
well i guess you're just my friend
i keep thinking i should leave
or this will never end

the sun ascends
you're in your bed
but i'm awake and watching you
i wish i'd seen that dull tureen
that seems to push you thru

but i can't sleep at night
and the drinking suits me right
so let's go out to the american hotel
let's go out to the american hotel

i left you off a week ago
with a bouquet of pride
but when i stepped back in again
well i found that they had died
so we'll drink at home all winter long
'cause the bars are just too far
but summer's almost here again
and i know just where you are

the sun ascends
you're in your bed
but i'm awake and watching you
i wish i'd seen that dull tureen
that seems to push you thru
the doctors said it was in your head
but that won't comfort you

you know that i can’t sleep at night
and the drinking suits me right
so let's go out to the american hotel
let's go out to the american hotel
let's go out to the american hotel
let's go out to the american hotel
