American Dreaming (alternative version)

Wake up again in an old motel
Is it somewhere different? I can't tell
Every set of curtains opens to the open road
And I'm missing you like Dell
This pen is like a prison cell
And I know you have gone to her and I can't go back home

I've been American dreaming, woah
I'm American dreaming, woah
I'm American dreaming, woah
But I never seem to get no rest

I should get some rest today
Then pack my bags, be on my way
My mind's always working on the way it could have been
Trying to tow a tightrope line
Find a way to feel high-fiving
Without drowning in this wine and calling you again

I've been American dreaming, woah
I'm American dreaming, woah
I'm American dreaming, woah
But I never seem to get no rest

I'm losing touch with all my friends
Want to remind me who I am
If I could just get back home and pick up right where we left off
I'd take better care of myself
I'd stop drinking from the bottom shelf
But my old wheels keep spinning and I cannot make them stop

I've been American dreaming, woah
I'm American dreaming, woah
I'm American dreaming, woah
But I never seem to get no rest

I'll get back home and try to be
Someone that's something like me
But I've forgotten all my angels out here in the wind
I'm sitting odder with my mind
Meditate to pass the time
But there's something inside setting sail all over again

I'm American dreaming, woah
I'm American dreaming, woah
I'm American dreaming, woah
But I never seem to get no rest
Oh, I'm American dreaming, woah
I'm American dreaming, woah
I'm American dreaming, woah
But I never seem to get no rest
