My Heart's Not a Hotel

When your headlights cut across my wall

Yeah, I thought it might be you

Lookin' for a place to fall

And talkin' sweet, and thinkin' small

Seekin' out convenient arms

Yeah, to rest in for a while

Someone to keep you safe and warm

While you ride out your latest storm

Oh, my heart's not a hotel you can check in an out of

It's not a, a temporary shelter, it's a home for someone's love

Don't just come here when you're lonely, knowing, full-well, you won't stay

'Cause I don't have the strength tonight to turn you away

Oh, don't let the dawn find me asleep

On a pillow of regret

Take all my dreams, just leave the key

And let me keep my dignity

'Cause my heart's not a hotel you can check in and out of

It's not a, a temporary shelter, it's a home for someone's love

Don't just come here when you're lonely, knowing full-well, you won't stay

'Cause I don't have the strength tonight to turn you away

No, don't just come here when you're lonely, knowing full-well, you won't stay

'Cause I don't have the strength tonight to turn you away

I don't have the strength tonight to turn you away
