If I Can’t Get There From Here Songtext
von George Jones

I′m looking for the town where sadness can't be found
Where happiness is blooming all year ′round
A place where there's no heartaches and no one crys a tear
But they all say I can't get there from here.


Surely there′s a place to rest a tortured mind
Oh, what I′d give if I could find
A place where there's no mem′ry of all those wasted years
But they all say I can't get there from here.

Surely there′s a place to rest a tortured mind
Oh, what I'd give if I could find
A place where there′s no mem'ry of all those wasted years
But they all say I can't get there from here.

They all say I can′t get there from here...
