[Verse 1]
I'd invite you back to my place
It's only mine because it holds my suitcase
It looks like home to me alright
But it's a hundred miles from yesterday night
[Chorus]
Must I be the man in a suitcase?
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face?
Must I be the man in a suitcase?
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face?
[Verse 2]
Another key for my collection
For security I race for my connection
Bird in a flying cage you'll never get to know me well
The world's my oyster, my hotel room's a prison cell
[Chorus]
Must I be the man in a suitcase?
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face?
Must I be the man in a suitcase?
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face?
[Verse 1]
I'd invite you back to my place
It's only mine because it holds my suitcase
It looks like home to me alright
But it's a hundred miles from yesterday night
I'd invite you back to my place
It's only mine because it holds my suitcase
It looks like home to me alright
But it's a hundred miles from yesterday night
[Chorus]
Must I be the man in a suitcase?
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face?
Must I be the man in a suitcase?
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face?
[Verse 2]
Another key for my collection
For security I race for my connection
Bird in a flying cage you'll never get to know me well
The world's my oyster, my hotel room's a prison cell
[Chorus]
Must I be the man in a suitcase?
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face?
Must I be the man in a suitcase?
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face?
[Verse 1]
I'd invite you back to my place
It's only mine because it holds my suitcase
It looks like home to me alright
But it's a hundred miles from yesterday night
