LYRICS INCLUDED BELOW!

Well there's too many windows in this old hotel
And rooms filled with reckless pride
And the walls have grown sturdy
And the halls have worn well
But there is nobody living inside
Nobody living inside.......

Gonna pull in the shutters
On this heart of mine
Roll up the carpets and pull in the blinds
And retreat to the chambers that I left behind
In hopes there still may be Love left to find
Still may be love left to find.

Seek inspiration in daily affairs
Now your soul is in trouble and requires repairs
And the voices you hear at the top of the stairs
Are only echoes of unanswered prayers
Echoes of unanswered prayers.

Well there's too many windows in this old hotel
And rooms filled with reckless pride
And the walls have grown sturdy
And the halls have worn well
But there is nobody living inside
Nobody living inside.....

what day in 1980 did this come out?

[docdetroit2006]

@tallulah1961 The Album "Phoenix" was released on November 30th, 1980.

[drmagic]

@docdetroit2006 i read from other sources that the album was actually released in November of '79. are u sure it was actually November of '80?

[docdetroit2006]

@drmagic You are right. I was wrong. "Phoenix was RECORDED in '79, then was released in '80. I stand corrected. THANKS! I was going by memory, and didn't check for information. My mistake. Cheers.

One of the most touching love songs I've ever heard

This is my favorite Dan Fogelbert song. My wife and I heard it often on our honeymoon in Bermuda in 1980. Rest in peace, Dan. georgefrom derby

@mandyp1959 Sorry to hear about your sister. I have a girlfriend going through it for the second time. When I have spare time I like to listen to songs from my younger days and this is one of my favorites. Sometimes it's difficult to keep a smile, as you know. Good luck.

One that doesn't go away. It was a shame he had to go early

LOVE this song...I always air drum to it.Is that Jeff Porcaro playing drums on this? If it is,then him and Dan are probably jamming together in Heaven! I miss them both.
