Under the bridge by the royal hotel
I held you there while the stars they fell
and the night wrapped its arms
around this fleeting affair
though it tries to keep us there
Oh the streetlamp covered us in its dirty gold
and your lips are hot against the cold
and your hair a black raven
into my hands it fell
under the bridge by the royal hotel
Oh marry me tonight
and the moon will be our ring
and cover you in white
and soot drawn from the rain
and though you say you wish to be
the night next to my day
Still you fly away
why don't you stay
Under the bridge by the royal hotel
I held you there while the stars they fell
and maybe we got lucky
like two pennies in a well
under the bridge by the royal hotel
Marry me tonight
and the moon will be our ring
and cover you in white
and soot drawn from the rain
and though you say you wish to be
the night next to my day
Still you fly away
why don't you stay
We danced a broken tango by the wall
and the barkeeps pouring tears
and there's goasts up in the hall
and the piano in the montage
knew it all along
Sometimes love
doesn't last that long
On room 19 a man is about to cheat
on room 05 her vows are on the sheet
Yes and outside on the sidewalk
you've left a lasting spell
under the bridge by the royal
under the bridge by the royal
under the bridge by the royal hotel
