The paintwork is peeling and the wallpaper is torn
The furniture is dusty but the atmosphere is warm
He smiles and says, “It's all right if you are not alone”
Coffee gone
The night moves on
And it looks like the lady's changing home
Another room, another style, she changes with the night
A new voice to wake her in a new dawn's morning light
He'll give his love, she'll take it and for a while it's fun
But every name
Is just the same
And it looks like the lady's moving home
See what tomorrow may bring
So many ties and strings
They follow you
See what tomorrow may bring
So many ties and strings
They follow you
(She dreams a dream and wakes to tell of nightmares she has had
He'll give her sweet, she'll taste the sour, now even he is sad)
She'll hurt them when she leaves them and they'll cry for her return
They'll say she's hard and cruel and one day she will learn
But they don't see the pain that she is harbouring alone
As she leaves on her way
She'd give all to stay
And it looks like the lady's changing home
