"Memphis" lyrics

"Memphis"

I don't wanna say it
You don't wanna say it but
I'll be the bigger man and say what we're both thinking

You can go ahead and pack your things
Think about what you wanna bring
But it ain't me, it ain't me, it ain't me

You might as well be in Memphis
I can see it in your eyes you're restless
You might as well be in Idaho
I don't care, I don't know where you go
You might as well be in California doing what you wanna do

Driving down the coast in someone else's arms
Just because it's easy doesn't mean we belong

I don't feel a thing
I don't feel a thing

It's been 3 years
And my God we're still stuck here
Maybe you were just a stop on my map
And I hate that there's no turning back to
The way you put your arms around me
The way you used to smile when I'd sing
I wanna dance with somebody
And you'd dance with me

But now you might as well be in Memphis
I can see it in your eyes your restless
You might as well be in Mexico
Sippin drinks on the beach tryna let this go
You might as well be in Arizona
Enjoying the view with who knows who
Watching the sunset, hit the reset, forget the regret

Cause I don't feel a thing
I don't feel a thing

They say that distance makes the heart grow fonder
It was good while it was good, but now we're a goner
And I know you want her
And I'll never be your
Memphis
Ooooooooo

You might as well be in Memphis
I can see it in your eyes you're restless
You might as well be in Idaho
I don't care, I don't know where you go
You might as well be in California
Doin what you wanna do

I don't wanna say it
You don't wanna say it, but
I'll be the bigger man and say what we're both thinking
