Hotels & One-Night Stands Lyrics

Hotels & One-Night Stands
Janis Ian

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
A loving that fades away
You're loving me
And I don't love nobody now

Hotels & 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
I've been to England, of course
But I wanna be
Someplace I've never been before
Hotels & 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 & 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
