Stardust Motel
Stop the arguing, please I was working on the memory Of the rhythm of her breathing When she's fast asleep So much sweeter than the sound Of people disagreeing
Like the ghost of gasoline stays clinging to your fingers I'm haunted by her whispers as well And I'm singing on my knees 'cos I don't have a prayer All alone in The Stardust Motel
Angela, Angela You've got a devil on each shoulder And no one left to talk to Keep your bright eyes up And never let them tell you What door not to walk through
All the citizens are sleeping and city lights just flicker Waiting for cathedral bells I am bleary eyed and burning Through the shivers of my fever All alone in The Stardust Motel
Stuck up in a neon castle with a ferris wheel dream You and me- what a story to tell I'm telling it tonight, I'm singing for myself All alone in The Stardust Motel
(Apologies to William Sleator)
