If I ever go back to Memphis
If I ever go back to Memphis, you know I’ll try.
I’ve got tears to long to subside,
... (you know I surely do)
... and like a stream by the river they wont dry.
(you know they surely wont)
and yet all I need is you to stand by my side.
If you’d grant me just one ...wish, my promise is this
(you wont do without)
and all the roads I travel
all the roads I see
Times that make us wiser
Days that set us free
Nights I sit and wonder
How I ever let you leave
If I ever go back to Memphis, you know I’ll try.
I’ve got tears to long to subside,
(you know I surely do)
and like a stream by the river they wont dry.
(you know they surely wont)
and yet all I need is you to stand by my side.
If you’d grant me just one wish, my promise is this
(you wont do without)
