Grant Lee Phillips Under The Milky Way Lyrics

Under The Milky Way Lyrics

Sometimes when this place gets kind of empty

Sound of their breath fades with the light

I think about the loveless fascination

Under the Milky Way tonight



Lower the curtain down on Memphis

Lower the curtain down all right

I got no time for private consultation

Under the Milky Way tonight



Wish I knew what you were looking for

Might have known what you would find

Wish I knew what you were looking for

Might have known what you would find



And it's something quite peculiar

Something shimmering and white

Leads you here despite your destination

Under the Milky Way tonight



Wish I knew what you were looking for

Might have known what you would find

Wish I knew what you were looking for

Might have known what you would find



Under the Milky way tonight

Under the Milky Way tonight
