Letter to Memphis

Letter to Memphis - Pixies

The day since I met her

I can't believe it's true

She came here from Memphis

Across the ocean sailing

And I saw her and I pleaded

Why do you come so far?

And she said," Trying to get to you

How I tried to get to you

Trying to get to you"

I'm sending a letter

I'll send it right to you

I'll send it to Memphis

I know that someday

Everything I needed and I wanted

Used to be that my head was haunted

And all these sirens

they make me mad

And all this violence

it brings me down

I feel strong, I feel lucky

Trying to get to you

Said I'm going to get to you

Trying to get to you
