I remember you well
In the Chelsea hotel
You were talking
So brave
So sweet
Giving me head
On an unmade bed
While the limousines
Wait
In the street
And those were the reasons
And that was New York
We were running
For the money
And flesh
And that was called love
For the workers in song
Probably still is
For those of them left
But you got away
You just turned your back
On the crowd
You got away
I never once heard you say
I need you
I don't need you
I need you
I don't need you
And all
That ja ving around
I remember you well
In the Chelsea hotel
You were famous
Your heart was a legend
You told me again
You preferred beautiful men
But for me
Make an exception
And clenching your fist
For the ones like us
Who are oppressed
By the figures of beauty
You fixed yourself up
You said well never mind
We are ugly
But we have the music
But you got away
You just turned your back
On the crowd
And you got away
I never once heard you say
I need you
I don't need you
I need you
Don't need you
And all of that jiving around
I mean to suggest
That I loved you the best
Well I can't keep track
I remember you well
In the Chelsea hotel
That's all
I don't even
Really think of you that often
