Grand Hotel Lyrics

Artist: Procol Harum
Album: Grand Hotel

Tonight we sleep on silken sheets
We drink fine wine and eat rare meats
On Carousel and gambling stake
Our fortunes speed, and dissipate.
It's candlelight and chandelier,
It's silver plate and crystal clear.
The nights we stay at Hotel Grand

Tonight we dine at Hotel Ritz.
(A golden dish with every wish ).
It's mirrored walls, and velvet drapes,
Dry champagne, and bursting grapes.
Dover sole, and Oeufs Mornay,
Profiteroles and Peach Flambe,
The waiters dance on fingertips
The nights we dine at Hotel Ritz

One more toast to greet the morn
The wine and dine have danced till dawn
Where's my Continental Bride?
We'll Continental slip and slide
Early morning pinch and bite -
(These French girls always like to fight)
It's serenade and Sarabande,
The nights we stay at Hotel Grand
Les nuits qu'on passe Ã l'Hotel Grande.

Comments/Interpretations

I love this song, and interpreted it in a unique way. The words to me, have to be taken in the delivery of them by brooker. I interpret this song as massive preparation and anticipation for the perfect date, only to have something go wrong. It's almost a retrospective remembrance "Oh how good it could have been?" I listened to this song many times after being dissappointed from a girl in my youth. I'd love to hear more interpretations of many procol harum songs. John.
