Lyrics
Leaving You in Memphis
Troy Castellano | Erica Bryan Smith
pedal on the gas down I-40 west
trying to get my mind off of you
neon lights light up a beale street sign
I pull up to the home of the blues
it's midnight but that's alright
i got a lotta heartbreak to heal
the guitar man raises his glass
says I understand how you feel
then echos of an elvis song
remind me only fools fall in love
memories of you followed me here but I'm
Leaving you in Memphis
Leaving you in Memphis
Headed out to the Graceland grounds
Where the king is buried and free
wish I could fly, be no longer tied
to your unchained melody
then echos of an elvis song
remind me only fools fall in love
memories of you followed me here but I'm
Leaving you in Memphis
Leaving you in Memphis
(Instrumental)
echos of an elvis song
remind me i've been loving you too long
checking out of the heartbreak hotel
and I'm leaving you in Memphis
Leaving you in Memphis.
