Hotel by Elysian Ring
It's four a.m., the band has torn down
Two weeks isn't long enough.
Again we pack up, it's the same old routine
Living on the road has gotten tough.
It's been a year since I last saw my home
I sometimes forget what it's like.
State to state, playing music in bars.
Earning a living and going through life.
Another town, another old hotel
Just another stop along the way.
Soon enough we'll again bid farewell
I wish just once longer we could stay.
Though lonliness can be hard when your life is a tour
and the days can run long.
No other passion could help me endure
except my love for song.
The hum of the interstate, a familiar sound.
Just eight hundred miles to go.
Above the horizon the sun peeks its head
Yesterday's gone, a new day in tow.
Another town, another old hotel.
Just another stop along the way.
Soon enough we'll again bid farewell
I wish just once longer we could stay.
Soon enough we'll again bid farewell
I wish just once longer we could stay.

Re: Hotel
Perhaps more lyrics must be posted before the "Hotel" entries go up... Here's mine.
"Hotel" by 15-16 puzzle
We got some time to kill,
But I am gonna kill whoever even mentions that game
Not if you beg and plead,
Not if you get down on your knees and hang your heads all in shame,
It isn't complicated, Just slighty overrated,
Seems like it's the same thing every time we play
Well always try our best, And then the rest of us
Will wanna up and quit when we hear someone say
(Chorus):
I built a red hotel on the boardwalk
With a pocket full of lies
I built a red hotel on the boardwalk
After half a dozen tries
I built a red hotel
Why do you act so suprised?
I get to be the scotty dog,
I always am the scotty dog, just ask anyone here
If that's the case, I'll be the racecar
And I'm gonna make these racecar noises right in your ear
You got to be more quick, I choose the candlestick
It seems that all these pieces got mixed in from 'Clue'
I guess I'll be the wrench. That makes a lot of sense,
It really says a lot about you
(Yeah, it says you're a big old tool.)
(Chorus)
(I built a red hotel on the boardwalk x 10)
I built a red hotel, I don't think it came out too well x 3
I built a red hotel,
Why, oh why, do you act suprised?
I'm not suprised, not in the least.
