Room 317
guitar chords lyrics
good evening, maam
don't turn the bed yet
I'm not the maid
what do you want then?
they must have written the room number wrong
I am looking for someone named Christopher Scott
three-seventeen, oh I'm sorry... unless
well, you must be, of course, you're John's wife, are you not?
oh God, I see
It had to happen
You must be Kim, Chris went to find you
Please come inside, no one will hurt you
I'm Chris' wife, my name is Ellen
In a way, I am glad I am meeting you first
understand, you were only a name till tonight
I'm Chris' wife, my name is Ellen
In a way, I am glad I am meeting you first
understand, you were only a name till tonight
I don't know how I'd feel if our roles were reversed
Won't you please sit down?
tell me you are lying
we've been married two years, I am sorry, it's true
he said he'd come to get me
he says he tried to reach you, but what could he do?
please tell me you're not married
you don't know, you can't know what I've done to be here
you don't know how he needed a new start
as for the child, you say it's Chris'
oh yes, Madame, my son is Chris'
of course we'll help
please keep your pity
it's not a gift
it is our duty
I had a dream for my son to belong
and not live all his life in the streets like a rat
we aren't rich, but we'll shoulder our load
Chris and I stand completely together on that
then you must take Tam with you
take a child from his mother, impossible Kim
you will take Tam with you
then he'll get what I wanted for him
but Kim, your child needs you
Chris is married to me, we want kids of our own
Tam's chance lies with you now, not with me
no!
can't you see?
it won't work
it can't be
if you're saying that because you made him change his mind
Chris must go away and leave me and his son behind
if you're saying that because my husband has another wife
my child has no future, like the dust of life
he must come tonight to my place
tell me so to my face
