The day since I met her
I can´t believe it´s true
She came here from Memphis
Across the ocean sailing
And I saw her and I pleaded
Why do you come so far and she said
Trying to get to you
How I tried to get to you
Trying to get to you
I´m sending a letter
I´ll send it right to you
I´ll send it to Memphis
I know that someday
Everything I needed and I wanted
Used to be that my head was haunted
And all these sirens they make me mad
And all this violence it brings me down
I feel strong I feel lucky
Trying to get to you
Said I´m going to get to you
