Chelsea Hotel # 2

Chelsea Hotel # 2 - Olle Ljungström

I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel

You were talkin' so brave and so sweet

Givin' me head on the unmade bed

While the limousines wait in the street

Those were the reason an' that was New York

We were runnin' for the money and the flesh

An' that was called love for the workers in song

Probably still is for those of them left

Ah but you got away didn't you babe

You just turned your back on the crowd

You got away I never once heard you say

I need you I don't need you

I need you I don't need you

I need you

And all of that jiving around

I remember you well in Chelsea Hotel

You were famous your heart was a legend

You told me again you preferred handsome men

But for me you would make an exception

An' clenching your fist for the ones like us

Who are oppressed by the figures of beauty

You fixed yourself you said "Well never mind

We are ugly but we have the music"

And then you got away didn't you baby

You just turned your back on the crowd

You got away I never once heard you say

I need you I don't need you

I need you I don't need you

I need you

And all of that jiving around

I don't mean to suggest that I loved you the best

I can't keep track of each fallen robin

I remember you well in Chelsea Hotel

That's all I don't even think of you that often
