My Elusive Dreams Lyrics

I'd followed me to Texas I'd followed me to Utah



We didn't find it there so we moved on



I'd followed you to Alabam things look 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



I had your child in Memphis you 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 moves on



Now all we have is each other and a little memory to cling to



And still you won't let me 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
