Hotel Angel
(Jewel Kilcher)


Sweet man, sweet mystery
Unveil yourself to me
Sweet soul, lie so still
Flesh cup, gonna get my fill
Gonna rise and fall
With the wings of your sheets
For the moon's full over Austin
The city sleeps below
Only the moon bears witness
To my hotel angel
Through the window

Your body be a tender vine
That twists and turns just like mine
Your heart a slender thong
Filled with honey, built of song
'Til dawn steals you from me
And takes me to the next town
But tonight the moon's full over Austin
And beggars all lie below
Only the moon bears witness
To my hotel angel

Through the window
One thing keeps me going
It's the slow and easy knowing
You're the kind of man
Who's kind of girl could maybe give her hand
So sweet man in your sweet misery
Lie upon this temporary sea
Love's dressing, I will adorn
To my side your absence be thorn
I'll rock you gently to sleep
Tonigh is one promise we both can keep
For the moon's full over Austin
And the thieves all steal below
And only the moon bears witness
To my hotel angel
Through the window
Hotel Angel
Through the window
