Craig Finn Sarah Calling From A Hotel Lyrics

Sarah's calling from a hotel
That was built into a mountain
There were diamonds in the fountain
And 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
And 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

And 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

But the 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 heard that she cleaned up, but then
I also heard 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 was sorry at the ending
She was lazy with her lies
But she was sick of scrounging 'round
Just barely getting by

And the 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."
