Lyrics
While you're looking up at city lights
I'm looking up at the stars tonight
Wishing you may, and wishing you might
Be coming home real soon
You say that Memphis isn't far away
Not like the stars in the Milky Way
But till you're back home with me to stay
Memphis might as well be the moon
Chorus:
It's not a light year to where you are
But these arms of mine only reach so far
And if they can't be holding you
Memphis might as well be the moon
Looking back at our bed I see
Just empty space where you should be
It seems as big as a galaxy
When I'm not lying next to you
I know you're trying to find your dream
Maybe it's there in Tennessee
But till it brings you back home to me
Memphis might as well be the moon
Chorus:
Somewhere under the stars tonight
I know Memphis is shining bright
But it's leaving me cold and missing you
Memphis might as well be the moon
It's not a light year to where you are
But these arms of mine only reach so far
And if they can't be holding you
Memphis might as well be the moon
