Текст и слова песни Legendary Pink Dots – Hotel Blanc
One more lonely room, and a key with
A number, and the guy behind the desk
Said, "Understand that the first night's
Free - but then you have to pay!" He nodded
Thanks. He wondered if he'd travelled all
His life ... Was he just a number on a
Hundred scraps of paper, thrown away? He'd
Never had a wife, and he'd never had
A lover. He turned the key. He smelt
The damp. He dived between the covers ...
Teardrops in his eyes turned to ice. And
He tried to think of better times but
The pictures never formed. And just one
Thought remained that maybe from the day
He was born, he'd stay dead inside. After
All ... (II)
And in another town the clock chimed
13 times, the traveller was home. He had
A lady by his side, they were driving
Through the snow. Pure, like the bridal
Gown she wore. Like the sound she made
When she would stroke his hand and
Say, "You'll never be alone again - just
Believe it's not a dream. It's not a dream!"
(III)
They tried to break the door down.
They found him face down. He was
Grinning like a clown. They called his name
- he never heard. They felt his pulse
But nothing stirred ..A coal black
Hearse appeared and hauled the corpse
Away. Another customer who paid at
Hotel Blanc ...
