Mrs.Smith and Mr.Jones
come to pass the night
they pulled off of the highway when they saw my light
Its a vacancy I offer them, what they offer me
Is fullness for a lifetime that is bare as can be
There is a vacancy, wont you come to me
and fill my empty spaces
I'm a hotel man in a promised land
That's filled with empty faces
Wont you bring your sorrow or bring your dreams
I'ts a place for you to be
There's no more tomarrow or thats how it seems
So wont you come to me
Ive got a vacancy
Another name, another key another pass of glory
another night, another sight
another bedtime story
another stage, another chance
for gentleness or violance
another birth, another dance
another dance in silence
Theres a vacancy
Wont you come to me
and fill my empty spaces
Im a motel man, in a promised land
Thats filled with empty faces
wont you bring your sorrow or bring your dreams
Its place for you to be
theres no more tomarow or thats how it seems
wont you come to me
Ive got a vacancy
Mr.John is coming on, with his liaison
Mr.Soft is coming off and soon he'll be gone
Mr. Hard has come apart and ill bet she's alone
Mr.Jive has come alive but nobody's home
Morning comes checkout time
with my pale and broom
I find what they left behind
and never tell the tale room
The sheets show their struggles
there glasses, their fears
the ashtrays, the hours passed
the towels, their tears
Theres a vacancy
Wont you come to me
and fill my empty spaces
Im a motel man, in a promised land
Thats filled with empty faces
wont you bring your sorrow or bring your dreams
Its place for you to be
theres no more tomorrow or thats how it seems
wont you come to me
Ive got a vacancy
