"Memphis Might As Well Be On The Moon" lyrics

"Memphis Might As Well Be On The Moon"

She left me here all alone in Houston
Said if she never saw me again, it would be too soon
Well, I know she's only gone as far as Memphis
But Memphis might as well be on the moon

Well, it's only just a matter of a few hundred miles
If I left now, I'd be there by tomorrow afternoon
But at the reasons why she left me to the miles she put between us
And Memphis might as well be on the moon

Now in my heart, I know she's gone forever
And she'd be just as far out of reach just across the room
As far as she's concerned, she's gone the distance
So Memphis might as well be on the moon

Well, it's only just a matter of a few hundred miles
If I left now, I'd be there by tomorrow afternoon
But at the reasons why she left me to the miles she put between us
And Memphis might as well be on the moon
Memphis might as well be on the moon
