Hotel Americana

Heart ache, a road break off route sixty-six Over each river and every state line Tour bus travellers all finding their fix Everyone hyphened is heightened this time Lost luggage losing it's share of the light American dreams with shutters pulled down Memphis blues music feels alright tonight Elvis themed runners surprising the town Rocky road blue grass fades slowly away In between cities and one horse places Cocktail umbrellas recall brighter days Appreciating these world weary faces Neighbours, travellers, old lovers and friends Ask for directions to where this tale ends.
