(Verse)
|
I went to Barcelona on the midnight train
|
I walked the streets of Paris in the pouring rain
|
I flew across and island in the Northern Sea
|
And I ended up in Memphis, Tennessee
|
|
(Chorus)
|
I keep my head down, I keep my eyes on you
|
It’s a big wide world with a million shades of modern blue
|
|
(Verse)
|
Everybody round here runs too fast
|
And it feels so good but it’s never gonna last
|
Everything I have for us what I knew
|
But I don’t have nothing if I don’t have you
|
|
(Chorus)
|
I keep my head down, I keep my eyes on you
|
It’s a big wide world with a million shades of modern blue
|
|
(Verse)
|
Will you still be there when I round the curve?
|
Will you hold my hand when I lose my nerve?
|
Oh I went to Barcelona and my mind got changed
|
So I’m heading back to Memphis on the midnight train
|
|
(Chorus)
|
I keep my head down, I keep my eyes on you
|
It’s a big wide world
|
I keep my head down, I keep my eyes on you
|
I keep my head down, I keep my eyes on you
|
It’s a big wide world with a million shades of modern blue
|
