My Elusive Dreams |
| You followed me to Texas, you followed me to Utah |
| We didn’t find it there so we moved on |
| Then you went with me to A-la-bam' |
| Things looked good in Birmingham |
| We didn’t find it there so we moved on |
| I know you’re tired of fol-low-ing |
| My elusive dreams and schemes |
| For they’re only fleeting things |
| My elusive dreams |
| You had my child in Memphis then I heard of work in Nashville |
| But we didn’t find it there so we moved on |
| To a small farm in Nebraska, to a gold mine in Alaska |
| We didn’t find it there so we moved on |
| I know you’re tired of fol-low-ing |
| My elusive dreams and schemes |
| For they’re only fleeting things |
| My elusive dreams |
| Now we’ve left A-las-ka because thewas no gold mine |
| But this time only two of us moved on |
| And now all we have is each other and a little memory |
| To cling to and still you won’t let me go on alone |
| I know you’re tired of following |
| My elusive dreams and schemes |
| For they’re only fleeting things |
| My elusive dreams |
