I’m checking out of Hotel Loneliness

All my lonely days, they’re all through

I’m checking into Hotel Happiness (oh, yeah)

Because, darlin', I found you

I left my teardrops in that old lonely room

Left my broken heart (my heart) back there, too

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

I won’t be needin' them in Hotel Happiness (oh, yeah)

'cause, darling, I found you

I woke up (woke up) dreamin' of your crazy kisses (kisses) (crazy)

I woke up (woke up) tellin' Mr. Misery «Here's your key"'cause

I’m checking out of Hotel Loneliness

And no, I won’t be back, yes it’s true

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Gonna make my new address at Hotel Happiness (oh, yeah)

You know why, darlin', so glad I found you

No more, make my new address at Hotel Happiness

'cause, darlin', I found you
