Well there's too many windows in this old hotel 
And rooms filled with reckless pride 
And the walls have grown sturdy 
And the halls have worn well 
But there is nobody living in inside 
Nobody living inside 
Gonna pull in the shutters on this heart of mine 
Roll up the carpets and pull in the blinds 
And retreat to the chambers that I left behind 
In hopes there still may be love left to find 
Still may be love left to find 
Seek inspiration in daily affairs 
Now your soul is in trouble and requires repairs 
And the voices you hear at the top of the stairs 
Are only echoes of unanswered prayers 
Echoes of unanswered prayers 
Well there's too many windows in this old hotel 
And rooms filled with reckless pride 
And the walls have grown sturdy 
And the halls have worn well 
But there is nobody living in inside 
Nobody living inside
