Chelsea Hotel - Israel Nash, Israel Nash Gripka

Down at The Chelsea Hotel with poetry and paintings

The walls are still holding memories of people who fell

Down through the years, fighting their fears

Down at The Chelsea Hotel

A sailor was dying to end all his feelings

Everything had just turned to hell, his lover was gone

But we have to carry on

We will carry on

Searching for truth with perpetual youth that will fade

And be gone in the blink of an eye

The world will be passing us by

Down at The Chelsea Hotel

Where Raymond is writing of poets and painters

Its something he does very well

A lover of his art, a lover in his heart

At The Chelsea Hotel

Where lovers and fighters are desperately dreaming

Of checking their hearts at the door

Never really sure, weve all been here before

Weve all been here before

Searching for truth with perpetual youth that will fade

And whats more in the blink of an eye

The world will be passing us by at The Chelsea Hotel

At The Chelsea Hotel
