Sarah, Calling From A Hotel Lyrics


Sarah's calling from a hotel
That was built into a mountain
There were diamonds in the fountain.
She said that she was happy.Hadn't seen her since the races
At the ending of last summer.
We watched the horses run up on each other.
She looked pretty.She said lately she's been thinking.
She's sorry she was ruthless at the ending.
But her new friend does much better
Than just get by.The last thing she said to me
Before she hung up the phone was
Here he comes
Oh God. I gotta go.
Every time you take a lover
You trade one thing for another.
We hadn't spoken in a year and
I'm not sure why she called.The last thing that she said to me
Before she hung up the phone was

Here he comes.
Oh God. I gotta go.
Here he comes. He's got a gun.I heard that she cleaned up.
Then I also heard that she didn't.
Sarah says he's got some money.
But Jenny says it's spent.
She says she knows that he's not perfect
But when you add it all up then it's worth it.
She said she was sorry at the ending.
She was lazy with her lies
But she was sick of scrounging around
Just barely getting byThe last thing she said to me
Before she hung up the phone was
Here he comes. Oh God.
I gotta go.
Here he comes. He's got a gun.
I gotta go.

Craig Finn is the man behind Lifter Puller, The Brokerdealer and The Hold Steady. He was also featured on Rhymesayers rapper P.O.S.'s Safety In Speed (Heavy Metal). He released his first solo album, Clear Heart Full Eyes, on January of 2012.

Here is some background information on Clear Heart Full Eyes from the No Future Songfacts . In early 2011 Hold Steady frontman Craig Finn challenged himself to write a new song every day in his Brooklyn apartment for his first solo album. "I had written a bunch of songs that were outside of the norm for The Hold Steady, a little quieter and perhaps more narrative," he said. "I wanted to gain some experience and insight into the process of making a record by working with new people." Finn enlisted producer Mike McCarthy (Spoon) and traveled to an Austin, Texas studio far away from his New York comfort zone. He hooked up with some local musicians there, including members of Phosphorescent and White Denim and sang his vocals live, keeping takes to a minimum and completed recording in a few days. The resulting album, Clear Heart Full Eyes was released on January 24, 2012 on Vagrant Records. Read more on Last.fm.
