[Verse 1] This ain't no love song This is a warning You came in smiling With smoke on your sleeve Left a dent in the doorway And lied to my knees You wore sweet words Like a knife in your coat [Verse 2] I read the signs I knew your kind One wrong move And I draw the line You spin that story Like I can't see through But I know the pattern And the mess you do [Pre-Chorus] I kept my door closed You kept pushing in Now the air tastes bitter From the games you've been in One last chance Then it's done Say my name And run [Chorus] Heartbreak Hotel You got a vacancy sign Heartbreak Hotel You stayed way past time Heartbreak Hotel I paid that bad stay Heartbreak Hotel Then you walked away [Verse 3] My car it broke down On a lonely road Just like my poor heart Carrying this heavy load Engine just sputtering Smoke in the air My world kept crumbling Beyond all repair [Verse 4] Woke up this morning Sun in my eyes Another day dawning Full of your lies Coffee tastes bitter Just like your goodbye Yeah it tastes bitter Makes anybody cry [Pre-Chorus] Thought we had forever A sweet melody Now it's just silence Staring back at me You want the easy kind You want the blind I won't be the fool You leave behind [Chorus] Heartbreak Hotel You got a vacancy sign Heartbreak Hotel You stayed way past time Heartbreak Hotel I paid that bad stay Heartbreak Hotel Then you walked away [Bridge] We had the good nights We had the fights We danced through midnight We counted our scars Now I can see it Clear as day Love turned lean Then it broke that way [Chorus] Heartbreak Hotel You got a vacancy sign Heartbreak Hotel You stayed way past time Heartbreak Hotel I paid that bad stay Heartbreak Hotel Then you walked away
