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 a I pleaded
why do you come so far and she said
trying to get to you
how I tried to get you
trying to get 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
trying to get to you.
