Dirty Cheap Hotel
Heartbreak in Shadows: Unraveling the Tale of a Fading Love
Lyrics
How long you stayin' in that dirty, cheap hotel
Questioning the duration of stay in a dilapidated and inexpensive hotel
Paid for by strangers that you know so well
Highlighting that the hotel expenses are covered by acquaintances
You give your life but you won't give your heart
Expressing a reluctance to commit emotionally despite giving time and effort
It was sad we had to part
Reflecting on the sadness of the inevitable separation
Get on that bus, girl
Instructing someone to leave on a bus
Go home, there's no more summer
Emphasizing the end of a positive or happy period
I wanted our love to last
Expressing a desire for a lasting love
But it's too late and it's too dark
Acknowledging the lateness and darkness of the current situation
We made promises that we could not keep
Admitting to unfulfilled promises due to financial struggles
When the money's gone we sell everything cheap
Describing the selling of possessions when facing financial difficulties
It's time to leave, no turning back
Stating that it's time to move on with no possibility of return
I can't see, well black's just black
Expressing difficulty in seeing, using the metaphor "black's just black"
Get on that bus, girl
Reiterating the instruction to leave on a bus
Go home, there's no more summer
Re-emphasizing the end of a positive or happy period
I wanted our love to last
Expressing the desire for a lasting love once again
But it's too late and it's too dark
Acknowledging the lateness and darkness of the current situation once again
I don't know why it took so long
Expressing confusion or regret about the delay in making a decision
It's too late, now she's gone
Stating that it's too late, and the person is now gone
You're too far gone
Emphasizing the irreversible distance the person has traveled
Your heart is cold
Describing the emotional state as cold and unresponsive
Remember when it was gold
Recalling a time when the heart was warm and open
Get on that bus, girl
Reiterating the instruction to leave on a bus
Go home, there's no more summer
Re-emphasizing the end of a positive or happy period once again
I wanted our love to last
Expressing the desire for a lasting love for the third time
But it's too late and it's too dark
Acknowledging the lateness and darkness of the current situation for the third time
And it's too late and it's too dark
Repeating the acknowledgment of lateness and darkness
And it's too late and it's too dark
Reiterating the point that it's too late and too dark
