|
I'm too far west of the Mississippi
|
and so far north there's a foot of snow
|
How I wish you could be here with mme
|
I didn't want to, I had to go
|
I got the feeling when we hung up
|
That you miss me less and less
|
Long distance loving ain't enough
|
So I guess the question is
|
|
If a train left for Memphis at four in the morning
|
Would ninety miles an hour be fast enough
|
With two thousand miles and six states to cover
|
Would you still be waiting up
|
If a train left for Memphis, would it be too late for us
|
|
I've dropped you cards and sent you flowers
|
And all the letters there's time to write
|
I hope my name in the darkest hour
|
Is still the last thing on your lips tonight
|
I've gotta make up all the ground that too much distance brings
|
I'm packing my bags and I'm leaving town
|
God I wish these rails had wings
|
|
If a train left for Memphis at four in the morning
|
Would ninety miles an hour be fast enough
|
With two thousand miles and six states to cover
|
Would you still be waiting up
|
If a train left for Memphis, would it be too late for us
