歌曲名 Railway Hotel

歌手名 Mike Batt

We went to the room and we bolted the door

The bass from the jukebox was coming through the floor

And out through the walls we could still hear the roar of the trains

Was this all the comfort we got for our sins

No Candles no waiters no soft violins

A dirty electric convector plugged into the mains

I had wanted much more for the first night with you

But the Railway Hotel was the best I could do

I knew the Savoy would have suited you well

But the best I could do was the Railway Hotel

Away in the sky were the lights of a jet

Burning the night like a slow cigarette

A lamp in the street threw a soft silhouette on the wall

And though it was crumbling and run down and dead

A chair and a sink and an old single bed

The love we began and the things that we said I recall

I had wanted much more for the first night with you

But the Railway Hotel was all I could do

I knew the Savoy would have suited you well

But the best I could do was the Railway Hotel
