Far — Thousand Island Sun
Step off the plane to another sunrise, another sleepless night and burning eyes
Walk on through airport doors, try to recall what it is I’m livin’ for
I’ve had my share of dead-end jobs, my heart broken and my spirit robbed
I’ve known a lot of folks I thought were good but they proved me wrong
Oh I spent the night in Memphis, Oh just to see about the king
Oh and I walked a thousand miles, but it didn’t mean a thing
And I’ve weathered through the seasons, but I can’t find no reasons
Why I’m so damn far from where I want to be
You got that girl, she walked out on you, she took your heart and broke it too
And you go to work every goddamn day, but all you get is more bills to pay
But you’re young and sure, you got fire in your heart, you got somethin’ to prove, somethin’ to prove
Oh I spent the night in Memphis, Oh just to see about the king
Oh and I walked a thousand miles, but it didn’t mean a thing
And I’ve weathered through the seasons, but I can’t find no reasons
Why I’m so damn far from where I want to be
From where I want to be
Oh I spent the night in Memphis, Oh I spent the night in Memphis
Oh I spent the night in Memphis, Oh I spent the night
