Sharon Kenny Hotel Heart song lyrics

I saw you in my dream last night

You had your smile so white

I thought your teeth were the stars

Your eyes, they were like tiny rivers

Well, it gave me the shivers when you looked right up at me

We never got to say a goodbye

We never sat down and cried and watched each others' tears fall out

So I never got a chance to tell you

Just exactly how well you carved your home in my heart

You can stay here a while in this hotel heart

People come and people go all the time

I'll never let it get cold or dark or crowded

I'll never turn out the light

I bet you thought I'd be much smaller

Well, I've gotten much taller

My legs are like trees in the ground

My branches are my tiny fingers

Well, they've gotten much bigger

They reach out for so much more

Say you'll stay here a while in this hotel heart

People come and people go every day

I'll never let it get cold or dark or crowded

I'll never give your spot away

I like to think you still can hear me

That you're listening clearly to all the words I start

'Cause I never got a chance to tell you just exactly how well you carved your home in my heart.
