In the hotel lounge
There was an orchestra
And a purple gown
And a girl in it who danced around and around
And ladies in sable
Sitting at tables
And feathers and fans
And tomorrow's plans
And coffee and liquor
And a misplaced vicar
And masks and trains and the rules of the game
And a quiet young lady named Harriet Vane
Goodnight lounge
Goodnight gown
Goodnight girl dancing around and around
Goodnight waltz and its lovely sound
Goodnight sables
Goodnight tables
Goodnight fans
And tomorrow's plans
Goodnight floor
And autres moeurs
Goodnight liquor
Goodnight vicar
Goodnight masks and goodnight trains
Goodnight pretence
Goodnight game
And goodnight to the lady named Harriet Vane
Goodnight music
Goodnight air
Goodnight Peter who isn't there
