John Dartnell - I Remember the Memphis Rain Lyrics

Didn't expect the day to turn out like this
Didn't think for a moment it would make me feel this way
Watching the faces of the broken hearted fighting back the tears putting on a smile
A crumpled rose saying more than words ever could
Thank you for the dance thank you for the places you gave me dreams I could hold onto

I remember the Memphis rain and walking in the street lamp haze
My senses burning out of control I remember the Memphis rain pouring down on me

Came here with an open mind just wanted to see
The further I got in I didn't wanna find a way out
Turned me around turned me upside down childhood memories flooding back to me
A sort of emptiness came creeping on it
I never gave a thought not even for a minute being here would make me feel this way

I remember the Memphis rain and walking in the street lamp haze
My senses burning out of control I remember the Memphis rain pouring down on me
