| Lyrics |
I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotelyou were talking so brave and so sweetgiving me head on the unmade bedwhile the limosines wait in the street.
Those were the reasons and that was New Yorkwe were running for the money and the flesh
And that was called love for the workers in songprobably still is for those of them left.
Ah but you got away didn't you babyyou 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 youand all of that jiving around.I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotelyou were famous you heart was a legend
You told me again you preferred handsome menbut for me you would make an exception.
And clenching your fist for ones like uswho were oppresssed by the figures of beauty
You fixed yourself yourself you said never mindwe are ugly but we have the music.
And then you got away didn't you babyyou just turned you 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 youand all of that jiving around.I don't mean to suggest that I loved you the best
I can't keep track of each fallen robin
I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotelthat's all I don't think of you that often.
