lyrics

So I left the ways that were making me be
Someone who I really don’t want to be
But with no signs ahead how will I ever know where I am at?

It’s not that I haven’t wished for a house on easy street
I pick up every penny off the road ’cause luck is what I need

Illuminate vacancy, isn’t there some place I can be?
Illuminate vacancy, isn’t there some place I can be?

Well I’m going to Memphis
And I won’t regret this
’Cause after heartache and blues this is still what I’ll choose
A road far off the map
Less traveled, but mine

You loose when you choose and I’m haunted by yet another road not taken
I see what I pass and I’m aching
’Cause once in a while along the way love has been good to me
But I heard them say you can’t put your arms around a memory

Still I’m going to Memphis
And I won’t regret this
’Cause after heartbreak and blues this is still what I’ll choose
A road far off the map
Less traveled, but mine

So I’m going to Memphis
And I won’t regret this
’Cause after headache and blues this is still what I’ll choose
A road far off the map
Less traveled, but mine
