She met him in a motel room
In the shaddy part of town
with a set of satin sheets pulled back
and the window shades pulled down
like a cotton dress she let her fears fall to the ground
with a do no disturb sign on the door
she whispered i've never prayed to you before
Chours:
Some people meet him in a church
at a service on Sunday
as the preacher says the perfect words
they bow their heads to pray
and the choir sings a sweet forgiveness tune
She met him in a motel room
With a bottle of sleeping pills
and a long list of sins
she's already planned on checking out
before she checked in
she was gonna leave a good bye not
just needed paper and a pen
with that vacancy light blinking red
She found that bible in the drawer beside the bed
Chours:
Some people meet him in a church
at a service on Sunday
as the preacher says the perfect words
they bow their heads to pray
and the choir sings a sweet forgiveness tune
She met him in a motel room
No choir song a sweet forgiveness tune
thats not the way that they were introduced
She met him in a motel room
She met him in a motel room
