Lyrics Nicole Atkins

Nicole Atkins

Hotel Plaster

Don't shake the change out of your pocket in the boardwalk

Cause that might wake someone there beside you who will scold you, boy

My tears could learn to play the violin

But it might not bring you back

At least we'd have a pretty soundtrack

Think of me in a prison of Hotel Plaster

Far from the shelter of your side

Take me back to the Rocking Horse, pray for answers

Hold on to our life, Hold on to our life

Don't leave your lover waiting all night by the window

She might not be the kind who will forgive you when the meal gets cold

I know we've hurt each other pretty bad,

But this midnight horoscope

It tells me there's a little more hope

Think of me in a prison of Hotel Plaster

Far from the shelter of your side

We broke the diamond with our bitter words

Hold on to our life, Hold on to our life
