All of My Memories Songtext

von Kathleen Edwards

All of my memories lay in the life of the highway
All of my nights in old motels sleeping alone
All of my days on the road with no one beside me
All of my dreams of a place I can call home
Somewhere in the shade near the sound of a sweet singing river
Somewhere in the sun where the mountains make love to the sky
Somewhere to build me a faith a farm and a family
Somewhere to grow older somewhere a reason to try
Cause I'm tired of big cities and so tired big city ways
Scratchin' off sunsets and walking around in a maze
Some sweet taxi dancer trying to save me from being alone
Oh, it's much worse than lonely, there's no place I really belong.
I want to be home
Im leavin' this city life
In my mind I'm flyin away
I'm leavin' tomorrow
And all of the old yesterdays

I'm leavin' the trash cans
The bright lights of telephone lines
I'm leavin my sorrows
And all of my memories behind
To see what I find

Somewhere in the shade near
The sound of a sweet singin' river
Somewhere in the sun where
The mountains make love to the sky
Somewhere to build me a faith
A farm, and a family
Somewhere to grow older
And somewhere a reason to try
Somewhere to grow older
Somewhere to lay down and die

End
