LYRIC

When I am gone, I know the waiting
Gets to you
It's like the world stopped turning
You're frozen, no one seems to notice
The absence of the wind
I know you're lonely
It's the kind lonely I feel out here

I don't wanna be alone in Memphis
I don't wanna be alone in New Orleans
I don't wanna dwell in cheap motels
Dirty sheets and hourly rates
I just wanna put the pedal to the floor
Burn up the stage like an old troubadour
I wanna get stoned
But I don't wanna be alone in Memphis anymore

And I've been down
In Mississippi river towns
For far too long
There's something about the night life
Something about this bar
There's something in the music
The brass, the drum beat like a heart
It reminds of your eyes and coal black hair
I am forever growing lonelier out here

I don't wanna be alone in Memphis
I don't wanna be alone in New Orleans
I don't wanna dwell in cheap motels
Dirty sheets and hourly rates
I just wanna put the pedal to the floor
Burn up the stage like an old troubadour
I wanna get stoned
But I don't wanna be alone in Memphis anymore

I don't wanna be alone in Memphis
I don't wanna be alone in New Orleans
I don't wanna dwell in cheap motels
Dirty sheets and hourly rates
I just wanna put the pedal to the floor
Burn up the stage like an old troubadour
I wanna get stoned
But I don't wanna be alone in Memphis anymore
