Chelsea Hotel # 2

[00:00.44] I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel
[00:06.93] You were talking so brave and so sweet
[00:13.69] Giving me head on the unmade bed
[00:19.49] While the limousines wait in the street
[00:25.89] And those were the reasons, and that was New York
[00:32.06] We were running for the money and the flesh
[00:38.46] And that was called love for the workers in song
[00:44.83] Probably still is for those of them left
[00:51.14] Ah, but you got away, didn't you, babe?
[00:57.44] You just turned your back on the crowd
[01:03.92] Oh, you got away, I never once heard you say
[01:10.67] I need you, I don't need you
[01:17.08] I need you, I don't need you
[01:23.70] I need you and all of that jiving around
[01:34.04] I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel
[01:39.80] You were famous, your art was a legend
[01:46.07] You told me again you preferred handsome men
[01:52.06] But for me you would make an exception
[01:58.47] And clenching your fist for the ones like us
[02:04.87] Who are oppressed by the figures of beauty
[02:11.43] You fixed yourself, you said, "Well, never mind
[02:17.30] We are ugly but we have the music."
[02:23.63] And then you got away, didn't you, babe?
[02:30.10] You just turned your back on the crowd
[02:36.63] Oh, and you got away, I never once heard you say
[02:43.44] I need you, I don't need you
[02:50.34] I need you, I don't need you
[02:56.84] I need you and all of that jiving around
[03:08.04]
[03:10.11] I don't mean to suggest that I love you the best
[03:17.06] I can't keep track of each fallen robin
[03:23.48] I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel
[03:29.76] That's all, I don't even think of you that often
[03:42.30]
