Sam McGovern - Hotel Rooms

Hotel Rooms don’t feel the same
Without you laying next to me
I miss the 3am nights
Where we’d lose track of time
Just to realise that we’re checking out at 10am

Polaroids, disposables
We’d dress up in the hotel robes
Taking photos that we’d never show anyone else
Just for tonight this is our fairytale

But there’s a dark side to these photos
An ultimatum that we both know
When we check out in the morning
You’ll join the arms of another
I won’t be able to touch ya

So hold me like I’m your only lover
In these hotel rooms there ain't room for another
So just hold me, hold me
Like I’m your only, only lover

We book these rooms but we both know
Our love won’t last outside these walls
So I’ll call you up once a month
When I'm in town I’ll let you know
But there’s a dark side to these phone calls
An ultimatum that we both know
When you hang up you’ll be long gone
And in the arms of another
I won’t be able to touch ya

So hold me like I’m your only lover
In these hotel rooms there ain't room for another
So just hold me, hold me
Like I’m your only, only lover

You check in
You check out
I lose track of what we are
I'm all in
Your all out
In the arms of another

So hold me like I’m your only lover
In these hotel rooms there ain't room for another
So just hold me, hold me
Like I’m your only, only lover

So hold me like I’m your only lover
In these hotel rooms there ain't room for another
So just hold me, hold me
Like I’m your only, only lover
