Lyrics:
Seems like you were in a glass hotel
Seems like, seems like
Seems like there was someone else as well
Seems like, it seems
Seems like you were in your glass hotel 5
Seems like, seems like
It seems like everything was going well
It seems like a dream
Well the radio was playing
In the darkness of the hall 10
There was someone standing with you
Who just wasn't there at all
And you were laughing
Well, the telephone was ringing
In a corridor of blue 15
A geranium came out of it
Reminded me of you
And I was crying
Seems like you were in a glass hotel
Seems like, it seems like 20
Seems like there was someone else as well
It seems like, it seems
Well there's nothing in the future
And there's nothing in the past
There is only this one moment 25
And you've got to make it last
And you were laughing
In a glass hotel
No
guitar tab entered.
