Manitoba Sunrise at Motel 6 by Tami Neilson Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Eight thousand miles from home, I just looked it up
This ain't my bed, my TV, or my coffee cup
Silence fills my head like the snow hits the ground
A line of pillows next to me that never make a sound
[Chorus]
O lonesome prairie wind
Won't you blow me home again?
To the love I left behind
That never leaves my mind
Oh, my head is dark
And my heart feels sick
A Manitoba sunrise at another Motel 6
[Verse 2]
A Western Star rolls by, someplace it needs to be
Watch the taillights leave for miles, is that how you watched me?
I'm asleep, you're awake; I'm awake, you're asleep
Don't matter night or day, in my broken heart you beat
[Chorus]
O lonesome prairie wind
Won't you blow me home again?
To the love I left behind
That never leaves my mind
Oh, my head is dark
And my heart feels sick
A Manitoba sunrise at another Motel 6
[Chorus]
O lonesome prairie wind
Won't you blow me home again?
To the love I left behind
That never leaves my mind
Oh, my head is dark
And my heart feels sick
A Manitoba sunrise at another Motel 6
Eight thousand miles from home, I just looked it up
This ain't my bed, my TV, or my coffee cup
Silence fills my head like the snow hits the ground
A line of pillows next to me that never make a sound
[Chorus]
O lonesome prairie wind
Won't you blow me home again?
To the love I left behind
That never leaves my mind
Oh, my head is dark
And my heart feels sick
A Manitoba sunrise at another Motel 6
[Verse 2]
A Western Star rolls by, someplace it needs to be
Watch the taillights leave for miles, is that how you watched me?
I'm asleep, you're awake; I'm awake, you're asleep
Don't matter night or day, in my broken heart you beat
[Chorus]
O lonesome prairie wind
Won't you blow me home again?
To the love I left behind
That never leaves my mind
Oh, my head is dark
And my heart feels sick
A Manitoba sunrise at another Motel 6
[Chorus]
O lonesome prairie wind
Won't you blow me home again?
To the love I left behind
That never leaves my mind
Oh, my head is dark
And my heart feels sick
A Manitoba sunrise at another Motel 6
