Memphis Didn't Mean a Thing
I remember a time in Memphis
It was a clear October night
I turned a blind corner
And I saw you under a street light
You were waiting to cross the road
For it to be safe to go
There was something in your half-smile
What it was I’ll never know
And I changed my direction
I had to walk your way
Yeah I remember that night in Memphis
And how it led to the next day
You were everything I could have wanted
And all I could ever need
You said you felt the same way
So tell me why did you just leave
Now I wish Memphis was just a city
One of many where I sing
But if I’m there and it’s October
For me it’s just a little colder
I wish Memphis didn’t mean a thing.
I can’t forget that time in Memphis
On a clear October night
I turned a blind corner
I saw you under a street light
You were waiting to cross the road
For it to be safe to go
There was something in your half-smile
What it was I’ll never know
