Our love is like the old Belmont Hotel It was in ruins, now it’s doin’ quite well The windows were busted, big holes in the walls Madmen and wildlife was roamin’ the halls Now there’s a swimmin’ pool with two waterfalls And it’s better than brand new now Our love is like the old Belmont Hotel It was condemned by the town for a spell Vagrants moved in and set fires in the rooms Ceilings were charred and the air thick with fumes Now there’s a garden where bluebonnets bloom And it’s better than brand new now So many times good buildings get torn down Razed to the ground Because work is hard to do Oh and if you try If you don’t let a living thing die It might wind up Better than brand new Our love is like the old Belmont Hotel Restored to the grace from which it fell We almost gave up but we both stayed right here The hope we held on to was stronger than fear Now all I can say is I love you my dear And we’re better than brand new now And we’re better than brand new now Aus Songtexte Mania
