Maybe It Was Memphis

Lyrics

Lookin' at you through a misty moonlight
 Katy did sing like a symphony
 Porch swing swayin' like a Tennessee lullaby
 Melody blowin' through the willow tree
 What was I supposed to do
 Standin' there lookin' at you?
 A lonely boy far from home
 Maybe it was Memphis
 Maybe it was southern summer nights
 Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
 But it sure felt right
 Read about you in a Faulkner novel
 Met you once in a William's play
 Heard about you in a country love song
 Summer night's beauty took my breath away
 What was I supposed to do
 Standin' there lookin' at you?
 A lonely boy far from home
 Maybe it was Memphis
 Maybe it was southern summer nights
 Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
 But it sure felt right
 ♪
 Every night now since I've been back home
 Lie awake drifting in the memory
 I think about you on your momma's front porch swing
 Talking that way, so soft to me
 What was I supposed to do
 Standin' there lookin' at you?
 A lonely boy far from home
 Maybe it was Memphis
 Maybe it was southern summer nights
 Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
 But it sure felt right
 Maybe it was Memphis
 Maybe it was southern summer nights
 Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
 But it sure felt right
 Maybe it was Memphis
 Maybe it was southern summer nights
 Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
 But it sure felt right
 Maybe it was Memphis
