Elusive Dreams Songtext
von Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazlewood

I followed you to Texas, I followed you to Utah
We didn′t find it there so we moved on
I followed you to A-la-bam'
Things looked good in Birmingham
We didn′t find it there so we moved on
I know you're tired of following
My elusive dreams and schemes
For they're only fleeting things
My elusive dreams


I had your child in Memphis
You heard of work in Nashville
We didn′t find it there so we moved on
To a small farm in Nebraska, to a gold mine in Alaska
We didn′t find it there so we moved on

And now we've left Alaska
Because there was no gold mine
But this time only two of us move on
And now, now we have each other
And a little memory to cling to
And still you won′t let me go on alone

I know you're tired of following
My elusive dreams and schemes
For they′re only fleeting things
My elusive dreams
For they're only fleeting things
My elusive dreams
