Steven Stra**man - Graceland lyrics

The Mississippi Delta was shining Like a national guitar I am following the river down the highway Through the cradle of the civil war [Hook] I'm going to Graceland, Graceland In Memphis, Tennessee, I'm going to Graceland Poor boys and Pilgrims with families And we are going to Graceland My traveling companion is nine years old He is the child of my first marriage But I've reason to believe We both will be received in Graceland She comes back to tell me she's gone As if I didn't know that As if I didn't know my own bed As if I'd never noticed The way she brushed her hair from her forehead And she said losing love Is like a window in your heart Everybody sees you're blown apart Everybody sees the wind blow [Hook] I'm going to Graceland, Graceland In Memphis, Tennessee, I'm going to Graceland Poor boys and Pilgrims with families And we are going to Graceland And my traveling companions are ghosts and empty sockets I'm looking at ghosts and empties But I've reason to believe We all will be received in Graceland There is a girl in New York City Who calls herself the human trampoline And sometimes when I'm falling, flying Or tumbling in turmoil I say Whoa, so this is what she means She means we're bouncing into Graceland And I see losing love Is like a window in your heart Everybody sees you're blown apart Everybody feels the wind blow In Graceland, Graceland I'm going to Graceland For reasons I cannot explain There's some part of me wants to see Graceland And I may be obliged to defend Every love, every ending Or maybe there's no obligations now Maybe I've a reason to believe We all will be received in Graceland Woah, in Graceland, Graceland, Graceland I'm going to Graceland
