Lying in the darkness
In this cheap, old, tired hotel
I got some whiskey to keep me warm
But inside I feel like hell
It's midnight in Memphis
And these blues won't go away
Midnight in Memphis
With one hundred hours to day
Staring out my window
Girl I watched you walk away
Your game it was a cruel one
Guess I was a fool to play
It's midnight in Memphis
And these blues won't go away
Midnight in Memphis
With one hundred hours to day
Girl I really loved you
I tried everything I could
With a empty smile and dry eyes
You left my life for good.
It's midnight in Memphis
And these blues won't go away
Midnight in Memphis
With one hundred hours to day
They say time heals all wounds
Every tear will dry
Won't happen for me
Maybe when I die.
It's midnight in Memphis
And these blues won't go away
Midnight in Memphis
With one hundred hours to day
