Текст песни 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 childrenLevon Helm - Back To Memphis - http://ru.motolyrics.com/levon-helm/back-to-memphis-lyrics.html
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.
