Freeway View by James McMurtry Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got a room with a freeway view
I'm only home at night
I ain't ever comin' back to you
Or then again I might
Or then again I might get lonely
Or then again I might not know my mind

[Verse 2]
I got a job on a survey crew
Pays enough for me
I ain't ever comin' back to you
Or then again, or then again we'll see
This time it just might take
This time it might just make it real

[Refrain]
Cannot keep my hands off you
Cannot keep my hands off you
Cannot keep my hands off you
Cannot keep my hands off you
[Instrumental]

[Refrain]
Cannot keep my hands off you
Cannot keep my hands off you
Cannot keep my hands off you
Cannot keep my hands off you

[Verse 3]
I got a room with a freeway view
I'm hardly ever home
I ain't ever comin' back to you
I'm better off alone
I'd rather keep my frozen heart
I love you but I've chosen darkness

[Refrain]
Cannot keep my hands off you
Cannot keep my hands off you
Cannot keep my hands off you
Cannot keep my hands off you
