The Fatima Mansions - Paper Thin Hotel lyrics

Your rating:


(Music--Leonard Cohen/Phil Spector; Lyrics--Leonard Cohen) Sony Music Publishing/Back to Mono Music



The walls of this hotel are paper thin

Last night I heard you making love to him

The struggles mouth to mouth and limb to limb

The grunt of unity as he came in



CHORUS:

I stood there with my ear against the wall

I was not seized by jealusy at all

In fact, a burden lifted from my soul

I heard that love was out of my control

A heavy burden lifted from my soul

I heard that love was out of my control



I listened to your kisses at the door

I never heard a world so clear before

You ran your bath and you began to sing

I felt so good I couldn't feel a thing--CHORUS



And I can't wait to tell you to your face

And I can't wait for you to take my place

You are the naked angel in my heart

You are the woman with her legs apart

It's written on the walls of this hotel

You go to heaven once you've been to hell

A heavy burden lifted from my soul

when I learned that love was out of my control



I want to seranade you with a song my mother taught me:

"SANTA LUCIA!! SANTA LUCIA!!"
