"Sunset Marquis" lyrics

Ben Lee & Johanna Samuels Lyrics

"Sunset Marquis"

Remember when you took
The joyride to hell
You called from a payphone
In downtown [?]

Left for vacation
Depart union station
My stomach was churning
With anticipation

Hey honey come get me
You know me so well
The drive is so lovely
And not too hard on yourself

Started a business
When we lived in Key West
I don't really know how
It ended a blacklist

'Cause I'm kinda depressed
But I'm doing my best
And my best's all you're getting from me
I had some self respect
The last time I checked
I left that at the Sunset Marquis

You know that there's nothing
I wouldn't do
If it's what you wanted
Then I'd see it through

You looked out the window
Like I dealt a death blow
You didn't believe it
Though everyone said so

Now I'm kinda depressed
But I'm doing my best
And my best's all you're getting from me
I had some self respect
The last time I checked
I left that at the Sunset
That at the Sunset
Left that at the Sunset Marquis

I'm not here to fight you
I bark but won't bite you
While I sit here wondering
If I even like you

But now we're back at theSunset
Back at the Sunset
We're back at the Sunset Marquis

We're back at the Sunset
Back at the Sunset
We're back at the Sunset Marquis
