Dave Barnes - Hotel Keys lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Baltimore's the coldest that I have ever been

In a second it seemed to me the encore came and went

I fell asleep over Virginia, woke up in Tennessee

They always seem to steal a piece of me

(Chorus)

Wheels just keep on rollin', another town, another scene

Eleven years of runnin' over miles of memories

What I'd give to go back to when it was still a dream

When it was more than a pocket of hotel keys

(Verse)

That day off in Chicago, when I almost gave it up

We caught up over coffee, I'd forgotten who I was

But I made it down to Memphis in time to feel the crowd

I wonder what Chicago's doing now

(Chorus)

Wheels just keep on rollin', another town, another scene

Eleven years of runnin' over miles of memories

What I'd give to go back to when it was still a dream

When it was more than a pocket of hotel keys

(Bridge)

And I'm waiting on a change in the weather

I'm waiting on a change in me

Lord, forgive my tired soul!

Music sure can take a toll,

It seems, oh, it seems

(Chorus)

Wheels just keep on rollin', another town, another scene

Eleven years of runnin' over miles of memories

What I'd give to go back to when it was still a dream

When it was more than a pocket of hotel keys
