Lyrics

My Elusive Dreams

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You followed me to Texas you followed me to Utah

We didn't find it there so we moved on

Then you went with me to Alabam 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 and I heard of work in Nashville

But 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 a little mem'ry to cling to

And still you won't let me go on all alone

I know you're tired of following...

For they're only fleeting things my elusive dreams
