When I Get To Memphis
http://www.billythekidonline.com When I get to Memphis
The clocks will be broken
And time will have spoken
And I'll be gone
When you get this message
With two worlds between us
The distance that beat us
And proved me wrong
Will still be here after all these years
And I'll be waiting dear
Hold me close
Tell me every lie
I need to know
How you let this die
I'm on fire
I'm a live wire
And I don't miss you when you say goodbye
When I get defeated
The highway behind us
Can only remind us
How I was so wrong
You say you didn't mean it
Then why did you do it
I asked you to prove it
But you were long gone
But I'm still here
After all these years
And I'm still waiting dear
Hold me close
Tell me every lie
I need to know
How you let this die
I'm on fire
I'm a live wire
And I don't miss you when you say goodbye
I don't miss you when you say goodbye
I don't miss you when you say goodbye
Back when it was you and me
Oh I believed everything
All your promises and pleas
Baby come on back to me
How could I
Believe you
Every time
When I read the ending
Of our endless story
On that Thursday morning
It went on for so long
There's no use defending
The way you destroyed me
If I'd seen the warnings
I'd be long gone
But I was still here
After all those years
And I'm still waiting
Hold me close
Tell me every lie
I need to know
How you let this die
I'm on fire
I'm a live wire
And I don't miss you when you say goodbye
I don't miss you when you say goodbye
I won't miss you when you say goodbye
