Cry Like Memphis

Cry Like Memphis:

by Tamara Walker

Lyrics:

Home of the blues is where I live
Trapped inside these lonely walls that won't forgive
Surrounded by memories
His goodbye haunts me like a Beale Street melody
And I've done everything but get down on my knees
If my tears will set this ghost inside me free

I'm gonna cry like Memphis
I'm going three times under
Gonna drown my sorrows
In tears that roll like thunder
Till I can find the strength
Till I can carry on
Im gonna cry like Memphis
When they heard the King was gone

Love me Tender cuts through the dark
Coming from an open window of a passing car
And in that moment I believe
That I can almost feel your body next to me
But one heart beating slowly brings me back around
I know youre gone, and I know Im breaking down

When I break down

I'm gonna cry like Memphis
I'm going three times under
Gonna drown my sorrows
With tears that roll like thunder
Till I can find the strength
Till I can carry on
Im gonna cry like Memphis
When they heard the King was gone
