Living my summers out in a hotel

Finally found the room to set a spell


Heard things at home were going astray

Won't you give me a moment, I've been away



I heard my name, but didn't turn around

Waited on the stairs for you to take the elevator down

And down



When I got to my room, I found out

You've been a lover, and you've been a friend

There've been others I never meant

How many witnesses, I couldn't say

Lord, give me a moment I've been away



I've been away, I've been away

I've been away and I've been out of my head



First sign of winter, I want you to go

Take nothing with you and never let it show

But leave me alone now, so I can pray

Lord, give me a moment I've been away



I've been away, I've been away

I've been away, and I've been out of my head
