Lyrics

Band, The Miscellaneous 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.?
