Room 119

I’m stuck here in 119
The lights are off and I’m lying here alone
I’m tired, but I cannot sleep
Maybe it’s time to be moving on

We drove down to the river
The rain was falling, but the water was low
She talked about the future
I just stood there and watched it flow

Chorus:
I can hardly see you at all
And I can’t catch my breath
Tell me what do you call it
When this is all that’s left

Some cowboy from down the hall
Keeps coming round tryin’ to give me somethin’
I don’t need what he’s bringing
I just want this nightmare to end

She’s gone back to the city
There’s a plane coming and she wants to be there
She swears that it won’t hurt her
I don’t know and I don’t care

Chorus:
I can hardly see you at all
And I can’t catch my breath
Tell me what do you call it
When this is all that’s left

Bridge:
Maybe I’ll pull myself together
Maybe everything will be OK
Here’s to you my old smoky friend
Here’s to better days

Chorus:
I can hardly see you at all
And I can’t catch my breath
Tell me what do you call it
When this is all that’s left
