CLARION HOTEL

I’m dyin’ in the water
I don’t know where the water’s gonna go

The keys on the table
The train’s out the door
The bottle of whiskey
We’ve been here before

The laughter and secrets
With time on our side
Has slipped away slowly
And shortened this ride

If living is dying
I’m dying with you
A notch on the bottle:
Forty one’s forty two

A kiss for a handshake
A clarion call:
That love is the winner
And winner takes all

I’m dyin’ in the water
I don’t know where the water’s gonna go

They’re leavin’ the morning
Clarion hotel
Mark and Liz are drivin’
I’m wishing in their well

The give without taking
The train asking why
The bottle of whiskey
They’re saying goodbye
