Fatima Mansions - Paper Thin Hotel lyrics

(Music--Leonard Cohen/Phil Spector; Lyrics--Leonard Cohen) Sony Music Publishing/Back to Mono Music The walls of this hotel are paper thin Last night I heard you making love to him The struggles mouth to mouth and limb to limb The grunt of unity as he came in CHORUS: I stood there with my ear against the wall I was not seized by jealusy at all In fact, a burden lifted from my soul I heard that love was out of my control A heavy burden lifted from my soul I heard that love was out of my control I listened to your kisses at the door I never heard a world so clear before You ran your bath and you began to sing I felt so good I couldn't feel a thing--CHORUS And I can't wait to tell you to your face And I can't wait for you to take my place You are the naked angel in my heart You are the woman with her legs apart It's written on the walls of this hotel You go to heaven once you've been to hell A heavy burden lifted from my soul when I learned that love was out of my control I want to seranade you with a song my mother taught me: "SANTA LUCIA!! SANTA LUCIA!!"
