Nothing But The Wheel

Peter Wolf · Sleepless [2002]

When I'm passed the boulevards



Out here underneath the stars



I've been flyin' past the houses, farms and fields



Leavin' all I know, back home



Rushin' through the cold night air



I'm holdin' on to nothin?, but the wheel



Stayin' clear of the interstate



I'm seekin' out those old two lanes



An' tryin' to explain the way I feel



Till all at once it's half past three



An' it's down to the trust and me



An' I'm holdin' on to nothing but the wheel



I've been tryin' to drive you off my mind



Let it that way be, I can leave it all behind



An' forty one goes on and on



An' the lights go winding in the dawn



An' the sky?s the color now of polished steel



An' the only thing I know for sure



You don't want me anymore



Then I'm holdin' on to nothing but the wheel



I've been tryin' to drive you off my mind



An' let it that way baby, I can leave it all behind



An' the only thing I know for sure



Is you don't want me anymore



An' I'm holdin' on to nothing but the wheel



An' I'm holdin' on to nothing but the wheel



Gettin' down old forty one



An' forty one takes on and on



An' the lights go winding in the dawn



An' I'm holdin' on in the corner, yeah



I'm holdin' on, holdin' on, holdin' on, holdin' on



An' the only thing I know for sure



Is you don't want me anymore



An' I'm holdin' on to nothin? but the wheel, oh yeah
