lyrics

(Verse)
I’m lying in my bed,
“Do Not Disturb” sign on the door
This hotel in this city
Has a room on the fifth floor
I’m trying to write to mother
Who wants me back home again
I hear her voice
As she asks me where the hell I’ve been.

(Chorus)
I’ve never left
That’s all I will say to her
I can’t forget
Because that’s just plain absurd
And all the lessons you have taught me
Since the day that I was born
I’ve put them in my pocket
So they’ll never be ignored

(Verse)
There’s a party two floors upstairs
Where the drinks are served in style
My friends tell tales of yesteryear
And everyone goes wild.
I’ve downed as much as I can take
Before I go to sleep
Mother, I am in great company.
You can count on me.

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
No matter how far I have gone
You’ll know I’m always having fun.
It’s in my nature, I have to roam around.
But don’t think my lack of presence makes an empty house.

(Verse)
So as I write this letter,
Don’t think anything’s gone wrong.
I hope this letter gets to you
Before the crack of dawn
The moon is somewhere in the clouds
As rain keeps falling fast
But this weekend’s just starting
And I know I’ll have a blast

(Chorus)
I’ve never left.
It’s a chapter yet to be closed.
I can’t forget.
I wish I sent along a rose.
It may be further than the house of many rising suns.
But there will always be a notice from your loving son.
