Talk Memphis to Me Songtext
von Cybill Shepherd

talk memphis to me and you'll see
all the beauty inside makes you laugh and cry
i can see the moon shining thru the trees
talk memphis to me such sweet harmony

why does the river mean so much
flowing to the sea
clouds overhead reflected there
touch the deepest part of me

too many lunches in LA
bumper to bumper all the way
so little that's me, so much time lost
the ransom of my soul the cost

talk memphis to me and you'll see
all the beauty inside makes me laugh and cry
i can hear the train coming 'cross the bridge
talk memphis to me such sweet harmony


i've strayed too far from the river's sound
lost the frenzied world
i can imagine you and me
flying back to tennessee

we're walking the bluff, a steamboat nears
it lifts my heart and calms my fears
i feel the pulse of your hand in mine
the concert of my hearts desire

all i need is the mighty mississippi view
all i want is to go back to the home of the blues

talk memphis to me and you'll see
all the beauty inside makes me laugh and cry
i can see the moon shining thru the trees
talk memphis to me such sweet harmony

talk memphis to me and you'll see
all the beauty inside makes you laugh and cry
i can hear the train coming 'cross the bridge
talk memphis to me such sweet harmony
