Omaha Hotel
Omaha Hotel
V1
Well the flood took the town
The fire took the bank.
And no one has the money
to recover what sank.
Rusted out trucks
Big heaps of metal.
I'm sure this place was greener when I was little.
Straight from the airport to fire and fury
But I always love the part where we pray to Mary.
I'm searchin' the back for the faces like mine.
Now there's one less face to find.
Chorus
Omaha hotel where I spent the night
I watched the bugs fly around in the parking lot light.
Couldn't catch a wink
Sleepin' in my blue jeans.
Tears in a church kinda kill my dreams.
V2
I stepped away for a minute, to get myself together
Watch them turnin' the soil
With the turnin' of the weather
And all at once there were no more chances
I wish we could of caught up under better circumstances.
Yeah, I missed your babies, missed the wedding.
With the wrinkles on our face,
Nostalgia is setting.
In.
Chorus
Omaha hotel where I spent the night
I watched the bugs fly around in the parking lot light.
Couldn't catch a wink
Sleepin' in my blue jeans.
Tears in a church kinda kill my dreams.
Bridge
I stepped away for a minute, sat on the steps.
I stepped away for a few years.
I straightened my dress.
If I said I regret leaving, I'd be lying
just wanna live my life
And this place in dying.
Dying.
Chorus
Omaha hotel where I spent the night
I watched the bugs fly around in the parking lot light.
Couldn't catch a wink
Sleepin' in my blue jeans.
Tears in a church kinda kill my dreams.
Outro
Oh, oh, oh, oh...
Well the flood took the town
The fire took the bank
No one has the money to recover what sank
