Another song from "Whisper, Pray, Make Room" and one of my favorites for some reason. 

Lyrics:
It was a cold night
A wicked evening
And I was trying to get a lift
The decorations
of the building lights
Like a swollen landing strip
And then conceiving
I found some leaves that
I wanted pressed and dried
The hands wouldn’t let
me work that night
I decided not to try
I went to Bright Street
I went in bare feet
I went to Barron’s Shoes & Ties
There were streamers up 
They won’t let you browse
Hence I lied

The wooden ceilings
The broken windows
The curtains drawn and torn
These old motels
Like sunken ships
Still crashing on the shore
There’s a bird
In the deep footprint
In the snow outside the door
I’d feed her if 
the shoe’d been mine
But at Barron’s I was declined
So I’m holed up
For the Winter
In this broken down motel
I wrote to Cat
To catch her up
P.S.  I wrote, I’m well
There’s a song of the fair traveler
Who rambles free and wide
I’m just like that I wrote to Cat
Hence I lied
