Motel

There isn't room in the Inn
The keeper wouldn't be my friend
I could tell in his eye
He'd never change his mind
So, I'm left to walk in the cold
The light of day is growing old
But who's to blame
Neither rain nor shine
Chorus:
That's why this is the best of me
Giving up...
This is the rest of me
And I've had quite enough
This is the best of me
Giving up...
You've seen enough of me
To know that it's tough
That is me in a scene
Father, he is tall ans so serene
I said I'd believe
I declare a proven sigh
Then I'm alone facing the snow
The rain falls hard and is blowing cold
I said I'd believe
When hell had frozen over
(repeat chorus)
But who's to believe
That what I've seen really isn't true
(repeat first verse)
(repeat chorus)
