Anthony Jay Sanders - Vacancy lyrics

They walked like two kids Guilty with all their discoveries hidden Drove fast from the skids Insisted he wanted to pay, and he knew that he didn't “I was wondering if you had a vacancy We are sleepy, do you have a place for me to sleep?” But silently, “Have you forsaken me?” With no bags on the floor They ordered a dinner and feasted like Philistines With no bags anymore They gazed into eyes and she acted like she was still nineteen “I was wondering if you had a vacancy We're so tired, do you have a place for me to sleep?” But silently, “How are you replacing me?” An unfilable folder This is the truth that he wishes he told her I wish you could feel what it felt like An aviary unlocked on a dark night But now, they are caged up like you Your birdsong is blue Your sky is gunmetal Watch a salt mine fly from your eyes Watch a whole world materialize And a pox from a person you love Your birdsong's a dove's Your feathers have settled Scratch my head 'til it flakes Our intimate winter starts falling before me There's a bed they won't make There are songs they are playing that tell the whole story
