Alina De LaRay, all things break, House Music, Sergey Karpov The Hotel Near The Ocean

The waves never stop

Even after all these years

I saw the sign before the highway
Faded letters in the rain
The hotel by the ocean
Still looking just the same

The lobby smelled of old wood
Salt and cigarettes
Like nobody had touched a thing
Since the night we left

Some places keep a memory

Long after people go

Some doors never really close

The hotel by the ocean

Room twenty-three

The curtains dancing slowly
Like they still remember me

The hotel by the ocean

Waves against the shore

Funny how i came back older

But you're not here anymore

The elevator still trembles
On its way to the top floor
The paint is peeling from the walls
Just a little more

I found our names inside a drawer
Carved into the wood

Like two strangers saying forever

Before they knew what forever meant

Some places keep a memory

Long after people go

Some names never really fade

The hotel by the ocean

Room twenty-three

The curtains dancing slowly
Like they still remember me

The hotel by the ocean

Waves against the shore

Funny how i came back older

But you're not here anymore

Down on the beach

The footprints disappear

Every single evening

When the tide comes in

Maybe that's mercy

Maybe that's time

The hotel by the ocean

Room twenty-three

The curtains dancing slowly
Like they still remember me

The hotel by the ocean

Waves against the shore

Funny how i came back older

But you're not here anymore

The hotel by the ocean

Still standing by the sea

Keeping all the nights

You left behind with me

The waves never stop

Even after all these years
