So many windows
so many walls
double lock-doors
down carpeted halls
somebodys crying
somebody calls
do you know whos
livin next door?
here at the mayflower
here at the mayflower
at the corner of main
and the road out of town
the mayflower rises
all battered and brown
a city-block deep
and a city-block wide
how many stories inside?
so many curtains
so many locks
eyes at the spy hole
somebody knocks
measuring morning
on so many clocks
do you know whos
livin next door?
right here at the mayflower
right here at the mayflower
you see theres aways a change
all at once someone goes
always new faces
that nobody knows
a panel left blank
on the board by the door
old lovers that meet like before
so many voices
so many names
so many photos
in so many frames
mister I know
youll be glad that you came
do you know whos livin
next door
right here at the mayflower
right here at the mayflower
right here
goin up
welcome to the mayflower
welcome to the mayflower
