When you've done all you need to do |
|
And you've had more trouble than you can use |
|
And you've painted every road that you can find |
|
When you've seen the sun set coast to coast |
|
And the rise and the fall and the highs and the lows |
|
And you're at the point where you know you're wasting time |
|
Baby, think about this when you need a little tenderness |
|
Come on back to |
|
MemphisCome on back to |
|
MemphisWhen you arrived in |
|
California |
|
Don't say that |
|
I didn't warn you |
|
How you might be treated while you're there |
|
When you walk the streets of |
|
New YorkAnd it hurt your feet and you knocked on doors |
|
And you realized that sometimes no one cares |
|
There's no reason to regret if you feel that emptiness |
|
Just come on back to |
|
MemphisCome on back to |
|
MemphisYour memory runs deep as these waters |
|
Under a bridge where we drink |
|
And all of the times that we borrow |
|
They're still here, you and me |
|
When you've held on all you can hold |
|
And you can't tell what you've been told |
|
And every step you take seems out of place |
|
If you need somewhere to rest |
|
You're just looking for a little more of less |
|
Come on back to |
