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
