Never Wanted

Never wanted, never needed
You said honey, best be leaving
If you want, I'll pack a bag
Foreign money
In your hand
In your hand baby
Tube of tooth paste, facial cleanser
Bar of soap, and moisturizer
But it gets better
Never wanted, never needed
You said honey, how you feeling?
Hotel pillows, worth a try
If you want me,
Swing on by
Swing on by baby
Mini bar, with many choices
Bedside table, distant voices
But its gets better
Does it get better
Never wanted, never needed
You said honey, best be leaving
If you want, I'll pack a bag
Foreign money
In your hand
In your hand baby
