All of My Memories

All of my memories lay

In the life of the highway

All of my nights in old motels

And sleepin' alone

All of my days on the road

With no one beside me

All of my dreams of a place

That I can call home

Somewhere in the shade

Near the sound of a sweet singin' river

Somewhere in the sun

Where the mountains make love to the sky

Somewhere to build me a faith

A farm and a family

Somewhere to grow older

Somewhere a reason to try

'Cause I'm tired of big cities

And so tired of big city ways

Scratchin' off sunset

And walkin' around in the maze

Some sweet taxi dancer

Tryna save me from bein' alone

Aw, it's much worse than lonely

There's no place I really belong

I wanna be home

I'm leavin' this city life

In my mind I'm flyin' away

I'm leavin' tomorrow

And all of the old yesterdays

I'm leavin' the trash cans

The bright lights of telephone lines

I'm leavin' my sorrows

And all of my memories behind

I'll see what I'll find

Somewhere in the shade

Near the sound of a sweet singin' river

Somewhere in the sun

Where the mountains make love to the sky

Somewhere to build me a faith

A farm, a family

Somewhere to grow older

Somewhere a reason to try

Somewhere to grow older

Somewhere to lay down and die
