nolan patton - toledo lyrics

i remember every little unfamiliar sound
that was able to find a place
in the air in the morning with the darkness all around
as you held your arms around the rest of our days
two became three and then the years flew
and i tried so hard to be around
but our pockets were thin and our jackets were too
but we found a way to keep ’em warm somehow
well i’m leaving town today, i got a couple of leads
some people wanna talk about accounts and things
we’ll talk through the numbers and i’ll tell them about the boys
and how i’ll be leaving toledo and on to illinois
the winter in chicago howls in size
the motel window sound a symphony
i got a meeting in the morning where the rivers bind
and if it goes well it’ll get us a few weeks
i’ll ride this turnpike wherever it goes
all the trucks are singing their familiar sound
but the engine gave out, i’m on the side of the road
i’m stranded in toledo and the snow’s coming down
i hate to call you from so close to home
like i said in a while i don’t know how much
now it’s just cold coffee in this waiting room alone
whenever he says oh no we don’t have enough
there’s an old folk song on the station i found
it’s familiar and clean and haunted and bright
and i’m singing goodbye to toledo for now
on the way back to the reason i’ve been driving all night
well the traveling is not the life i chose
but it’s all i’ve got and it’s all i know
