Lyrics


Memphis Moonlight
SMILE
I stayed up late 
and watched the moon on the river 
I sat on the bed 
I hoped you would't leave 
I looked out the window 
at the cars on the street 
what had I said.... 
I saw the Memphis Moonlight sky 
I wiped another tear from my eye 
as another day drifts by 
I'm thinking of you 
in the Memphis Moonlight

I wake up tired 
and watched the rain gently falling 
I laid on the bed 
I hoped you would return 
your face at the front door 
was a dream come true 
I saw the Memphis Moonlight sky 
I watched another plane flying high 
as another day drifts by 
thinking of you 
in the Memphis Moonlight

She sits with me 
the neon in her eyes 
the sun will never rise 
until the misty morning 
it's all turned out 
as day turns to night 

I stayed up late 
and watched the moon on the river 
I sat on the bed 
I hoped you would't leave 
I looked out the window 
at the cars on the street 
what had I said.... 
I saw the Memphis Moonlight sky 
I wiped another tear from my eye 
as another day drifts by 
I'm thinking of you 
in the Memphis Moonlight
