You said I was the reason why
You believed in god
As We snuck outside my window
Into your black car
One Desert night, an open sky
We left our lives behind
We lost the light but we had it all,
Cuz we were by each others side
We rode for miles till we crossed the border at dawn...
And The whole time we kept playing that same song...
Elvis is singing on the radio
And I hope you know
That every time I hear it
I think about old back roads
Sneakin out the window
Boots kicking up dust
Stars all around us
It's Graceland in my mind
When I hear Elvis, Elvis
You always said that Memphis was a holy state of mind
I was like "hell yeah well maybe we could both go there sometime"
But You left me standing there that night
At the door of that motel
I died a thousand times
I'd never felt that kind of hell
I was screaming outside, dead of night, with the headlights on
I drove all night, outta sight, then I heard that song...
Elvis is singing on the radio
And I hope you know
That every time I hear it
I think about old back roads
Sneakin out the window
Boots kicking up dust
Stars all around us
It's Graceland in my mind
When I hear Elvis, Elvis
