I'm going back Said I want to go back I wasn't running When I hit the ground I fell so hard That I'm just coming round I wasn't looking But I saw it in your eyes There in the faces on the faded photographs But I've been searching Searching my soul Now I'm going back to Memphis Cause' the rain is on my back Leaving all my troubles behind I'm going back to Memphis Going right to the start Into a journey of the heart I hear the music, I feel the sound Been high on soul food I'm not coming down The Southern moonlight and the delta sun Here in my heart You read me all the time I've stopped searching Cause' it's in my soul Now I'm going back to Memphis Cause' the rain is on my back Into a journey of the heart And I'd been searching Searching my soul I'm going back to Memphis Cause' the rain is on my back Leaving all my troubles behind I'm going back to Memphis Going right to the start Into a journey of the heart
