Home of the blues is where I live
Trapped inside these lonely walls that don't forget
Surrounded by memories
Yes, goodbye haunts me like a Beale Street melody
I've done everything but get down on my knees
But if my tears will set this ghost inside me free
(Chorus)
I'm gonna cry like Memphis
I'm going three times under
Gonna drown my sorrows
In tears that roll like thunder
Til I can find the strength
Til I can carry on
I'm gonna cry like Memphis
When they heard The King was gone
(Instrumental)
Love Me Tender cuts through the dark
Coming from an open window of a passing car
And in that moment ohhh I believe
I can almost feel your body next to me
But one heart beat slowly brings me back around
I know you're gone and I know I'm breaking down .....
And when I break down
(Repeat Chorus)
(Instrumental)
Til I can find the strength
Til I can carry on
I'm gonna cry like Memphis
When they heard The King was gone
