Flagship

歌詞

There's a few too many years on this hotel She used to be a beauty, you can tell The lights down in the lobby, they don't shine They just flicker while the elevator winds And the couple in the corner of the bar Have traveled light and clearly traveled far She's got nothing left to learn about his heart They're sitting there a thousand miles apart Baby, let's not ever get that way I'll say whatever words I need to say I'll throw rocks at your window from the street And we'll call ourselves the flagship of the fleet There's a lady shining shoes up by the door And cowboy boots for seven dollars more And I remember how you loved to see them shine So I run upstairs and get a pair of mine And there's a painting on the wall beside the bed The watercolor sky at Hilton Head Then I see you in that summer when we met And that boy you left in tears in his Corvette Baby, let's not ever get that way I'll drive you to the ocean every day We'll stay up in the presidential suite And call ourselves the flagship of the fleet Ooh, ooh, ooh You gotta try and keep yourself naive In spite of all the evidence believed And volunteer to lose touch with the world And focus on one solitary girl Baby, let's not live to see it fade I'll cancel all the plans I've ever made I'll drive and you can ride in the back seat And we'll call ourselves the flagship of the fleet Ooh, ooh, ooh
