lightspeed champion - back to black lyrics
band, the
miscellaneous
back to memphis
if i never saw you
you’d still live in my dreams
calling out from stages
and music magazines
? if i were a painter
you’d be green and gold
carved out of matches
but broken out of stone
? taken from the fire of your fiddle
words of unspoken, blinding truth
if i couldn’t see it, i was lost in my youth
but i’m going back to memphis – after you.
? if i could have seen you
with blood on your bones
poison in your fingers
but music in your soul
? you could have been my lover
taught me everything i know
but now we are your children
your flowers in the snow
? but all you ever wanted was to see the heart of the city, oh
and all you ever got was hand to mouth
so i know you’ll be walking for a long, long time
cause you’re going back to memphis – heading south.
? brothers till the night came
and whispered in the pines
tempting me with secrets
to play a game with time
? now i feel you in the walls
and i know you’re in the air
and it’s just like i can touch you
you’re living everywhere
? but all you ever wanted was to be in the heart of the city, oh
and all you ever got was handed out
so i know we’ll be walking for a long, long time
cause we’re going back to memphis – heading south
going back to memphis – heading south.?
