My Elusive Dreams

I'd followed me to Texas, I'd followed me to Utah
 We didn't find it there so we moved on
 I went with you to Alabama, things looked good in Birmingham
 We didn't find it there so we moved on
 I know you're tired of following 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
 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
 And now we've left Alaska because there was no gold mine
 But this time only two of us moved on
 Now all we have is each other and just a little memory to cling to
 And still I won't let you go on alone
 I know you're tired of following my elusive dreams and schemes
 For they're only fleeting things, my elusive dreams
 For they're only fleeting things, my elusive dreams
