Lyrics
[verse]
Down at the end of Sorrow Street there stands a lonesome door,
I checked in with my suitcase and I ain't leaving anymore,
The clerk don't ask no questions, the walls all know my name,
Every room is empty but they're all filled up with pain.
[chorus]
I'm staying at the Lonesome Arms, room thirteen on the floor,
Where the lonely check in nightly and they don't walk out no more,
The lightbulb hums a sad old tune, the bed's as cold as stone,
Welcome to the Lonesome Arms, honey, you're not alone.
[verse]
The desk clerk's seen a hundred hearts come wandering through that door,
Each one dragging shadows that they can't outrun no more,
I hear them pacing hallways when the midnight hour strikes,
Counting all the heartbreaks that came calling in the night.
[chorus]
I'm staying at the Lonesome Arms, room thirteen on the floor,
Where the lonely check in nightly and they don't walk out no more,
The lightbulb hums a sad old tune, the bed's as cold as stone,
Welcome to the Lonesome Arms, honey, you're not alone.
[bridge]
If you ever lose the one you swore you'd never lose,
You'll find your way here too, there ain't no other views,
The sign out front is flickering, it's calling out your name,
Come on in and join us, we're all feeling just the same.
[chorus]
I'm staying at the Lonesome Arms, room thirteen on the floor,
Where the lonely check in nightly and they don't walk out no more,
The lightbulb hums a sad old tune, the bed's as cold as stone,
Welcome to the Lonesome Arms, honey, you're not alone.
