Memphis in the Spring
Maybe we travelled too far to remember the old days
Maybe let all the photographs fade through the years
Melodies made in the moonlight of earlier midnights
Carry us back to the place where the music began
Can you hear the river, dear?
It's whispering to us
Can you feel the lights on Beale Street
Pull you close to me
The love we found in
Memphis in the spring
He was a writer from up in the north with a warm smile
She was a singer who sang of her Tennessee home
How they would meet was as simple as watching the grass grow
Still he would take his sweet time before saying hello
Can you hear the river, dear?
It's whispering to us
Can you feel the lights on Beale Street
Pull you close to me
The love we found in
Memphis in the spring
The question let me cut to the chase
I want you with me through it all
And all the times I played it safe
Before I poured my heart out like the rain
Reign it in, man, can't you see she's backing
Out of time? Moment's right, I can't fight it anymore
I know that I'm wasting time closing blinds
And locking all the doors inside of my mind
Isn't safe but now I'm saying I don't care
I could stare into that river for eternity
So I'll pray that the sunset never goes all the way down
So that I don't have to leave, darling, I got all I need right now
Can you hear the river, dear?
It's whispering to us
Can you feel the lights on Beale Street
Pull you close to me
The love we found in
Memphis in the spring
Maybe let all the photographs fade through the years
Melodies made in the moonlight of earlier midnights
Carry us back to the place where the music began
Can you hear the river, dear?
It's whispering to us
Can you feel the lights on Beale Street
Pull you close to me
The love we found in
Memphis in the spring
He was a writer from up in the north with a warm smile
She was a singer who sang of her Tennessee home
How they would meet was as simple as watching the grass grow
Still he would take his sweet time before saying hello
Can you hear the river, dear?
It's whispering to us
Can you feel the lights on Beale Street
Pull you close to me
The love we found in
Memphis in the spring
The question let me cut to the chase
I want you with me through it all
And all the times I played it safe
Before I poured my heart out like the rain
Reign it in, man, can't you see she's backing
Out of time? Moment's right, I can't fight it anymore
I know that I'm wasting time closing blinds
And locking all the doors inside of my mind
Isn't safe but now I'm saying I don't care
I could stare into that river for eternity
So I'll pray that the sunset never goes all the way down
So that I don't have to leave, darling, I got all I need right now
Can you hear the river, dear?
It's whispering to us
Can you feel the lights on Beale Street
Pull you close to me
The love we found in
Memphis in the spring
