Back To Memphis

If I never saw you

You'd still live in my dreams

Calling out from stages

And music magazines ?

If I were a painter

You'd be green and gold

Carved out of matches

But broken out of stone ?

Taken from the fire of your fiddle

Words of unspoken, blinding truth

If I couldn't see it,

I was lost in my youth

But I'm going back to

Memphis - after you. ?

If I could have seen you

With blood on your bones

Poison in your fingers

But music in your soul ?

You could have been my lover

Taught me everything

I know But now we are your children

Your flowers in the snow ?

But all you ever wanted was to see the heart of the city, oh

And all you ever got was hand to mouth

So I know you'll be walking for a long, long time

Cause you're going back to

Memphis - heading

South. ?Brothers till the night came

And whispered in the pines

Tempting me with secrets

To play a game with time ?

Now I feel you in the walls

And I know you're in the air

And it's just like

I can touch you

You're living everywhere ?

But all you ever wanted was to be in the heart of the city, oh

And all you ever got was handed out

So I know we'll be walking for a long, long time

Cause we're going back to

Memphis - heading

South Going back to

Memphis - heading

South. ?
