Hotel Yorba

I was watching
with one eye on the other side.
I had fifteen people telling me to move:
I got moving on my mind.
I found shelter
In some thoughts turning wheels around.
I said 39 times that "I love you."
to the Beauty I had found.

Well it's 1, 2, 3, 4...
Take the elevator
at the Hotel Yorba.
I'll be glad to see you later.
All they got inside is vacancy.

I've been thinking
of a little place down by the lake.
They got a dirty little road leading up to the house.
I wonder how long it will take 'til we're alone,
sitting on the front porch of that home.
Stomping our feet on the wooden boards,
never gonna worry about locking the door.

Well it's 1, 2, 3, 4...
Take the elevator
at the Hotel Yorba.
I'll be glad to see you later.
All they got inside is vacancy.

You'll prob'ly say I'm silly
to think childish thoughts like these,
but I'm so tired of acting tough
and I'm gonna do as I please.
Let's get married
in a big cathedral by a priest.
'cause if I'm the man you love the most
you can say "I do." at least.

And it's 4, 5, 6, 7...
Grab your umbrella.
Grab hold of me,
'cause I'm your favorite fella'.
All they got inside is vacancy.
